I've never had this level of problem with screen, at all, and I used
it for many many years for everything.

We're seeing *very* different behaviour, then.

In a bare terminal or in a fresh screen, after running "yes" for 30
seconds, I get my prompt back as close to instantly as makes no
difference.

In tmux it takes 8 seconds.

When I said that it was taking 10 minutes for ^t0 to register, I
wasn't exaggerating.  screen had lag, but never anything remotely
like this.

Running "yes $(seq 1 100)" for 30 seconds, and hitting ctrl-c, tmux
took *another 36 seconds* to get me my prompt back.
