Tried Debian sarge: rxvt and rxvt-unicode are faster, but not blinding: on a Celeron2GHz, takes 7 to 9 seconds, with 0 to 2 seconds CPU time in the X server (depending on terminal size); rxvt or rxvt-unicode take 0.1 seconds only without "flushed" output, xterm or gnome-terminal take about 5 seconds without flush.

Once we know that it is a regression, and not just a "slow" > implementation, the severity could be raised. As per initial bug report: >> ... 50 seconds ... At woody the above completed in under 1 second. so it seems proved a regression.
