On real hardware (with VGA mode), VT switching is very slow, but scrolling is fine. There's a small glitch during VT switch: immediately after pressing the keys, screen is redrawn, but where you'd normally see the login prompt, blurry characers are drawn. After a fraction of a second, these are replaced with proper glyphs. Smells like a font related problem.
