What sort of difference will this make performance wise? Obviously not twice the GPU performance, but if you are doing something graphically intensive like 3D rendering then would it be a worthwhile *bump* to get the MBP model with 512MB?
 
no, it only helps at higher resolutions becuase it has extra memory to store the graphics textures
