  I don't know how much overhead the Drawable remove/add would cause, really.

  I believe you could simply construct new arrays of vertices and primitives, 
and then
swap them into the existing drawables.

  Another source of overhead is sometimes the allocation and deallocation of the
std::vector that store the drawable vertex/texcoord/normal/color/primitive 
arrays.
Consider not removing and deleting the old arrays, but rather, removing, 
clearing and
reusing them.
