I would add that performance under SVGAlib is *significantly* better
than under X (assuming linear frame buffer support exists for your
video card).  X is particularly poorly suited for emulating
applications which avoid the Mac ROMs and try to scribble directly to
screen memory.  Under SVGAlib, even those applications blaze.
