	You could consider creating a really big bitmap, and changing the
modulo for the start of the bitmap.  This takes almost zero cpu time.  If
the bitmap is 3x the height (width) of the screen, you can do a quick blit
to copy the bottom of the screen to the top, change the modulo to the top
of the screen, and then continue.
