Qemu's vnc server tries to be clever and searches for real changes inside the pages it finds dirty, so the only perceptible thing there is an increased amount of CPU being wasted. In MOL instead, the VNC server just directly sends pages that are marked dirty. And I get a full new screen update on every update cycle. Please check with some debugging code if the dirty region really from the dirty bitmap is really only the one that was updated :).
