Hi all,

I have been using 9front on a RPI2b+ for more than a month now
and it's great except that drawing is really slow; I'm not complaining
of course, I'm just curious about the reason, since I remember the
display working more smoothly with another OS.

To give an idea of the lag I'm experiencing, if I type in acme's tag,
the window below it is redrawn after every character, and the time it
takes is such that I see all the redraws and I have to wait for the
display to catch up with what I typed.  I tried to time this and I'm
able to type 3 chars a second.

Also if the display's too busy updating, mouse movement is very slow.

Thanks for any knowledge y'all may want to share.
