OK, I take the optimizations back, I didn't know what exactly they were doing.

What I was thinking about when I talked about a performance slider a few days 
ago was playing around with some glHint parameters, or the worst thing, 
giving the user the ability to force drawStridedFast instead of 
drawStridedSlow, but that would be close to what nvidia was doing here(if the 
story is true).
