Yes, I thought as much.... :-) But then, if you're setting individual
pixels, of course it's going to be slow... :)
I suppose one way around the "slowness" of a planar display is to update
one plane at a time, in a left-to-right fashion. It requires a
significantly different algorithm for rendering, but it has the same
number of memory accesses as the chunky method... :)
