Some time ago, I tested replacing the YUY2 colour space conversion
with a memcpy().  The memcpy() was about twice as fast on my
900 MHz Celeron, saving another 10% to 15% of CPU.  On his 450 MHz P2,
this change is probably crucial.

I occasionally get dropped frames on my 900 MHz Celeron on dfb:mgatv but
not on dfb output.  I think this is mainly due to the colour space
conversion.  Dropped frames do occur more frequently when the OSD layer
is displayed, though.
