Not to get anyone's hopes up, but, can't it be defaulted on the server
through:

HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\ORL\VNCHooks\Application_Prefs\yourcadprogramna
me.exe
        use_GetUpdateRect = 0

so that the slower option will only be in effect when the CAD application is
in control? That's on the last page of the documentation and many of us
don't get that far.

Doc:

use_GetUpdateRect 
When a window recieves a message, (WM_PAINT), indicating that it should
repaint itself, it is possible to find out precisely which regions have
changed, so that WinVNC need only scan those for potential
updates,increasing efficiency. However, this can cause graphical glitches
occasionally, particularly when an application scrolls the contents of its
window, in which case only the revealed section of the window is marked as
needing to be updated. If these glitches prove to be a problem then edit the
<appname>\use_GetUpdateRect entry in the registry. A value of one indicates
that this optimisation will be used, while a value of zero indicates that it
will not.

On the server, turn on "poll full screen".  This uses more CPU but is
virtually guaranteed to catch stuff.  Try playing around with other
options, which are mostly less CPU-intensive but may help.

It would help if people tried to explore these options *before* posting the
list about it.
