Because Videl transfers from video RAM to VGA/RGB at 50/60Hz in
the "background" take part of the RAM access memory bandwidth?
Does it correlate directly to Width x Height x Bitdepth data amount?
Do you have numbers on how much this effect is at its smallest
and largest?

I don't think that's taken at all into account in Hatari...
