[osg-users] Limit in size of VBOs?

I've seen a perf hit from using VBO's over display lists, but it's been
worth it to be able to debug rendering with NSight, The modern OSG opengl
clean path has a few other perf hits. The various model/view/projection
matrix should probably be a uniform buffer object, instead of independent
uniforms. That speeds up rendering a bit as well.
