Summary 03038: bwidow: Severe performance drop during GAME OVER screen
Description There is a caveat on performance: the 'game over' screen. Here, it drops down to the thirties, percent-wise. And the text is almost all white, except for one segment of the 'R', which is yellow. I think it's all supposed to be red.

Regarding the Red GAME OVER text, I don't see evidence of it. Anything I've ever seen shows yellow text. A source/reference snap or video would be useful.

When the game goes into game over screen, it triggers lots of vector_add_point() list overflows, hence the slowdowns.

Tested on mame 0.130 (version when this issue was notified)
Performance falls to 75% when the game over screen appears.

Tested on mame 0.204
It sometimes drops to 99% in the game over screen, other times it doesn't drop and stays in 100% all the time

Works much better now.
