Okay... well, I'm sure it does perform terrible anyway, I've done
literally no work on rendering. It's just hacky 2 minute throw-away
rendering code to display something on the screen.

Out of curiosity, are you running Linux or Windows? I barely test the
linux build (I just got it to work), so I can't really comment on it's
performance. If a linux user would like to hit it with a profiler and
see if I've done anything stupid in the linux code, that'd be useful.
The linux build also needs better input and midi code to be properly
playable.
