Interesting. I'm not seeing a huge difference, but it definately shows in the markings. Cost on my geforce2mx is about 5-10% depending on what is in the view. Just for kicks I tried setting the __GL_FSAA_MODE=4 to see what the antialiasing did for the Wright Flyer (and all its "straight" lines). The effect was impressive but the frame rate hit was huge...more than 50%.
