This is aimed at people with none or slow opengl graphics hardware acceleration. Without hardware acceleration performance is normally about 1fps, this isn't usable. With this new option it might be usable...
I class slow 3d graphics performance as less than about 5fps, in theory the improvement here should be the biggest. In practice these cards may have difficulty coping with the new code I've added...
After that "hard-sell" I'll just add that I haven't done much testing or finished everything yet, so there's likely to be things not being displayed and/or erased correctly in certain circumstances.
Anyway if the 3d performance is bad on your machine give it a try and see if selecting "quick draw" in the appearance dialog helps (or works)...
