Which scroll-speed are we interested in? Scrollbar scrolling or scrolling
caused by issuing "find /"?
You can improve the latter by fiddling with the refresh rate. Refreshes are
slightly delayed and forced after every N bytes/packets of data. Not exactly,
but something like that. See TEmulation.cpp and how showBulk() gets called.
It's important that some updates happen rather fast, e.g. when you move your
cursor due to the keyboard repeat it looks really bad if it only updates
twice a second or so :)
Cheers,
Waldo
