A89: Buffers vs. direct display




Is it faster to display sprites directly to the screen or to put the sprites 
on a buffer and then copy the buffer to the screen? For example. I want to 
clear 5 sprites off the screen (by XORing the same sprite on top of the 
existing one) and then re-display those 5 sprites in a different location. 
Would it be faster to put them one at a time onto the screen or to put them 
all onto a buffer, and then copy the buffer to the screen? Thanks.
