Double-buffering is a property of the Window, not the View, and it's orthogonal to why you shouldn't call -drawRect:.

Surely (as I understand double buffering) there are three step, create offscreen buffer, draw in it, flip the buffer onto the screen. Possibly all drawing actions could go into a offscreen buffer thats there for the window all the time, but unless the framework knows that your done drawing (i.e. you just returned from the drawRect method that was called by the event loop after setNeedsDisply:YES) surely it wouldn't know to flip the buffer onto the screen?
