The LCL uses the Windows API or a  Linux Widget Set API, and both are 
highly optimized to use the hardware Graphic processor for all provided 
functions (such as rendering Text and standard objects).

If you need advanced high speed graphical Features (such as 
zoom/pan/move/3D views of objects residing in the memory of the GPU), 
you need to use other libraries (not being called "GUI") such as Open 
GL, SDL or - less "basic" - Flash)

Flickering and speed are completely different issues. Usually flickering 
is suppressed by triple buffering, reducing the speed by needing more 
CPU time.
