program: RPN
screen: 400x240
time: 18.7s
performance: 5134

Note that the graphics drawing screen size 400x240 is to be used with the performance index. This is the size of the drawable pixel area. My rationale for using a pattern like this is that it has some randomization and doesn't fill the whole screen as a solid blob. A highly predictable pattern or a gray/black blob can be much more economically produced, which is not a good candidate for a benchmark to make the benchmark generalizable and predictable for the drawing speeds of other pixel/line patterns.

The RPN code has RCL "ResX" and RCL "ResY" which I assume return 400 and 240, respectively?
