1600SW slows down O2 compared to using VGA

1600SW slows down O2 compared to using VGA
Never noticed this before as I have always used the SGI1600sw monitor with my O2.  But last night I plugged in a 19" Sony FP monitor to compare the screen brightness and notices an increase of speed when IRIX loads the desktop.  Opening and closing apps seems a bit faster.  Overall the system seems less sluggish.  The resolution im running on the Sony through the VGA port is 1280x1024 32x32 bit.  I understand with the UMA memory the higher resolution of the 1600sw may be using more ram than the lower res monitor.  I just didnt think it would be that noticeable.
