Angus' advice is good, but my advice would be to
move to Performer 2.0 right away. When you run the
1.2 release on Impact, you're using the IGLOO layer
to interpret each command (for example, v3f) into the
OpenGL counterpart at run-time. This is no way to
achieve the level of performance that you should
expect from the machine.

Also, you may have discovered a bug in IGLOO (but
I'm not sure). The IRIS GL default blend color is
white and the OpenGL default is black. If you are
using the default, then IGLOO may not know to set
all the "different defaults" by default, if you
see what I mean.
