If you have to start from scratch everytime this is true.

However on a dedicated server there is no reason to not have
preloaded the instructions for drawing your commonly used GFX
objects :-)

Also modern GFX cards blow the doors off of the CPUs when it comes
to pusing 'bits and bytes' arround even when in 2D mode.
