BTW I really think we can (and should) reduce this a bit more - the
whole UI stands still during that period, so the BDirectWindow should
never take that long anyway for one update.
Of course, I don't know yet how this would affect software GL stuff,
but that shouldn't be too hard to find out; and in general, I guess we
can safely consider anything that comes even close to half a second can
be considered as a bug. Therefore, I think we might as well kill apps
that need more than 1 second for its drawings.
Bye,
Axel.
