Seems the Parallels folks further stabilzed the VT-x support on Mac OS
X such that Plan 9 no longer kills it.

It's much faster with that switched on too.  I was running Geoff's
version of the rotzoomer and it was doing fairly well at 1280x1024x32.

'strange' from xscr will actually give you fps. anything above 20 for
a default window size is good.

I'll give it a shot later... I'm on my way out the door.

32bpp 1024x768, using the VESA driver and I'm getting 77.379447 fps
with 8.strange.

Decent :-)
