It's based on the fact that there is only one window/desktop manager, 
which handles screen updates in strictly sequential fashion.

When an application relies on high speed updates, it should serialize 
these requests itself, as required, instead of leaving this to the 
desktop manager and its arbitrary request scheduling.
