"""         xturtle-example-suite:

           xtx_bytedesign_fast.py

bytedesign_fast is an accelerated version of
the example: bytedesign

Accelerationis done using the tracer method.
The statement

t.tracer(n, delay)

has the effect, that drawing is done "in chunks
of n items". In other words: most of the
screen updates done in a normal animation,
don't take place.

See line 153:

t.tracer(1200, 0)

Since screen updating is the most time
consuming operation, this has a
considerable effect.
