I want to display a 3D cylinder.  I also need the view to be completely
inside it.  Whenever I move the cylinder closer to the screen, it starts
to really slow down.  The slowdown causes the game to be unplayable in
640x480, the resolution at which it needs to run.  I've tried messing
around with the cylinder's coordinates, the projection distance, and
almost everything else.  What can I do to solve this problem?
