If they are that slow, then I'd have to say yes. But a sub bitmap shouldn't be
more than a regular bitmap.. Are we talking display bitmap or memory bitmap
(some cards have shit slow glDrawPixels, so drawing memory bitmaps is also
shit slow). But as a display subbitmap _should_ only use different texcoords,
it should be as fast as a regular display bitmap :o
Or at least thats how I see it.
