Font metric bogosities that cause greatly excessive redraw can
definitely result in annoying flickering though, even on machines
which are fast enough that you don't notice the actual redrawing.
[This is the case on X11 anyway; unless the ms-windows port is doing
double-buffering, I expect the same is true there.]
