Description:
I have two PCs running Windows XP Pro. One is equipped with an Nvidia GeForce 6600LE s supporting OpenGL 2.1, and the other is ATI HD3450 card with an supporting OpenGL 2.1 too.
MySQL Workbench 5.0.30 fails to detect either one with OpenGL support. Thus GDI rendering is always applied.
This is the System Info for Nvidia GeForce 6600LE :

And here is partial report from OpenGL Extensions Viewer 3.0 , as recommended in FAQ:
Renderer: ATI Radeon HD 3400 Series

Max texture size: 8192 x 8192
Max anisotropy: 16
Max samples: 4
Max draw buffers: 8
Max texture coordinates: 16
Max vertex texture image units: 16
Both are not properly detected by Cairo.
I know I am not alone, and some or many users have similar experience. The drawing response will become noticeably slow from , say, 40 tables, specially with many foreign key constrants.
