As it stands, FlightGear 0.9 still runs fine (without 3D clouds) at 1024x768x16bpp on an old 16MB Voodoo3 400GHz-class box I rigged up for the kids. For people with even older hardware, we have many ways to speed things up, such as --disable-clouds --disable-random-objects --disable-panel --disable-hud --disable-sound --fog-fastest --visibility=5000 --fov=20 --shading=flat --disable-skyblend --disable-textures --enable-wireframe --geometry=640x480 and so on, as required. In other words, you can turn off almost every feature added over the past 4 years.
