The Line A interface is faster than going through [[GEM]]'s [[VDI]] and has some extra features. Also, Line A calls require less application
 code than their VDI counterparts. Of course, Line A does not replace the VDI completely, but if an application only needs a few primitive graphics functions (and wants maximum performance), then Line A is sufficient and optimal.
