Ehm, how would I know, that this is the the actual bottle neck?
(What is VBO, anyway?)

Tried it at work. This is a 3.5 years old, moderate hardware. AMD single
processor, 4400 BogoMIPS. Graphics card is nvidia  NV37GL Quadro PCI-E Series. 
Graphics driver is the closed source "nvidia, 173xx legacy version". Pcb was 
run in a maximized window on my left 1280x1024  monitor.

current debian/squeeze, version 20091103: 17 FPS (thin draw poly 25: FPS)
pcb-head: 11 FPS (thin_draw_poly:18 FPS)
pcb-GL_before_pours: 9 FPS
pcb_local_customisation_no_pours: 10 FPS

Looks like v20091103 is consistently the fastest binary on this particular 
set-up. Any idea, why this is so?
