No it won't. Because the screensaver priority is set low (if it is
not already, then it should be), the screensaver will run very slowly
but
the rest of the system will not be hindered.
That's nice in theory, except I've watched it with my own eyes - a
reasonably fast, but non-3D-accelerated machine get extremely slow with
a 3D screensaver running.
Besides that, even if it didn't slow the system down, they still *look*
like crap unaccelerated, and thus, should go in their own package,
IMHO.
