...and people running older kernels get different results (no surprise) fwiw, I ran 'top' on 5 terminals with xterm-spam running concurrently on 2.6.15 (rxvt, pterm, xterm, konsole and gnome-terminal). For that case, gnome-terminal was definitely the slowest, and used the most CPU time (more than a factor of three slower than xterm). konsole was about 2.5, pterm was about the same as xterm, and rxvt about half the CPU (ymmv). > > gnome-terminal is also faster all around (at least on my box): -- Thomas E.
