    Ungh, there was a discussion about this on the list a while back.  I can
say that it isn't a Debian problem, in general, since I use Screen
religiously on almost all my sessions on my machine and there is no delay
when creating or switching screens.

    Ah, here is what I was thinking of...  Do a dejanews search on "screen

get to find a version to backup to.  :)
