[Paraview] Still Render in PV5.2.0 takes longer time than in PV4.4.0

For the first render of points your numbers seem reasonable. For subsequent
renders you will find different tradeoffs on the old backend. Display Lists
are typically slower for a first render but faster on subsequent renders.
With them turned off the first render is fast but subsequent renders are
not any faster. Subsequent renders with OpenGL2 should be fairly fast.
