Andrew, "Poll console windows for updates" causes console windows (.e.g. Command Prompt windows) to be polled for updates, since the normal VNC Hooks mechanism doesn't work for such windows.
You may wish to try VNC Server Personal or Enterprise Edition (http://www.realvnc.com/products/enterprise), which can make use of the VNC Mirror Driver beta (http://www.realvnc.com/products/beta/vncmirror) to improve performance.
