Why are screen updates so slow?

[David A. Rogers]

I just got usertools.exe from /latest.  It's slooooooow.  I hunted around
the net and found a recommendation for setting term= and termcap.  It
wasn't much of an improvement.  I understand that the code is compiled with
debug on.  Even so, it doesn't seem right that a simple ls command should
list so slowly.  Is it something I can tweak or is it inevitable?
