This depends on your video card and driver. If you work on Linux,
look at the glxinfo output. The last column in the table of visuals
might contain remarks such as "slow" for formats that trigger a
software fallback.

For most modern cards a 32 bit RGBA format (8 bits per channel)
with a 24 bit depth buffer and a 8 bit stencil buffer without
auxiliary or stereo buffers should be OK.
