i've been using this for a quite some time now:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/console/

it is much faster in scrolling the log; it captures the output and 
flushes periodically contrary to the normal console which flushes each 
char and as tex often writes char by char ...; other os's use delays in 
the refresh in consoles so there it's less noticeable
