Hardware-accelerated drawing of curved shapes
You can use OpenGl 4.x tessellation shaders to convert Bezier control points into polygons.

A google search for "tessellation shader bezier" found this outline describing the tessellation of Bezier surfaces and curves:

This offloads the Bezier evaluation from the CPU to the GPU and reduces the data flow across the bus.
