Which VNC server / connection type do you use? With x11vnc over wifi I tend to have a higher framerate and less lag than with vnc-viewer
I use RealVNC Personnel Edition. (latest Build) My comments are based on my observation of "playing" Eve Online while at work through VNC.

Also in terms of CPU usage, maybe you could cut screen polling in general when the app is minimized. When the app is made active again, the polling could continue. I however, am not sure what all needs to occur to maintain a connection. I'm not sure if the server would drop the connection if polling request aren't being accepted/requested. Just a thought though.

You are right. The driver only effects the server.
