"Driver tweak" ?

Reminds me of the early DirectX and OpenGL days when various optimisations were hidden so that the Quake2/3 engine ran faster... but was nothing more than scaling down the textures/3D geometry accuracy... so as to score a higher FPS.

I hope these "tricks" do not come back into play.
