On Linux, there is a very practical reason: to reduce the number of wakeups per second, and save power. You may think it is far fetched, but try a minimalist XFCE or LXDE desktop, run powertop updating every 5 seconds (so that screen refresh from powertop do not alter your measures) and see for yourself. For that same reason, you may want to disable the blinking cursor, and conky, and other gizmos that blink things on the screen. |
