Any ideas on how Windows(-doze not appropriate here) does it? On exactly
the same hardware and a configuration of 2x2 screens, 1024x768 each, and
24 bit color depth, everything works wonderfully smooth as if there was
nothing to it. 1-2 per cent cpu load. Launching some graphically intense
applications results in 6-7 per cent cpu load. Is the graphics
functionality maybe ASYNC in Windows?
