Not to mention that Highcolor is a bad choice as well there because of the 
mouse over effects and the associated extra drawings and mouse pointer 
monitoring. On a slow remote X11 link you'd better NOT have a style with 
highlighting. Maybe it's wise to make it possible to turn it off over remote 
links, so you can have one style, but optimized performance depending on 
whether you're local or remote.

Anyway, for slow systems or links, use Platinum, or the Motif builtins, or 
whatever that's simple, but not Highcolor, Liquid, Keramik or dotNet (for 
different reasons).

Seconded.
