Er.. it's not obvious about the indexing. Because I gather from postings
on this list from Sun folk that the IndexedGeometry gets unfolded to lists
of triangles or polygons or whatever before it gets sent to the graphics
subsystem. And since this has to happen, you probably pay a performance
penalty while waiting for the unfolding. Not too much, I'd think. -T.
