Way back when, there was this feature called "instance drawing".  It was  
documented in the Concepts docs, as well as the function docs.  Now I can't  
seem to find a description of it, except for the function definitions.  I  
especially expected to find it in the performance section of the docs.

I was surprised that the purple book doesn't mention it, either.

Does anyone know what the status is of instance drawing?  Is it going away?  I  
know it wasn't an Adobe thing, but that doesn't explain why NeXT doesn't  
discuss it.
