Interesting. I'm testing it on Window though. You're using Linux? Maybe the scheduling is different. Now I tried it on Windows in VirtualBox, and it still looks quite smooth to me (except that hardware acceleration doesn't seem to work properly through virtualisation, but it's okay as long as I keep the window small enough). However, unlike the Linux version, it does max out the CPU, so the trick with threadDelay 0 doesn't work. Apparently, I'll have to find a real Windows box somewhere, because I couldn't reproduce the jerkiness you're talking about.
