It also changes behaviour. On Win, e.g. there is the raster painter's buffer flushed onto the 'real window' at the end of the paint event, whereas an X serve is some kind of a 'state machine' that's more or less indirectly managed by X commands and that's a lot 'more asynchronous' than the Win* version.
