I have been having the same problem since commit e8d36bf10. Commit a6eea7b4d did not fix it. The symptoms are only noticeable when I ssh into my box from the outside. It doesn't appear to matter whether I use PuTTY or rxvt (in both cases $TERM==xterm). When I edit a long file in Vim and scroll the window, I see the cursor jumping all over the screen. The speed of the scroll is much diminished. Again, I am only able do discern this effect when connecting to my box via ssh. When I attempt to reproduce from a local terminal, I am not able to notice any slow performance. And when I run a build of screen pre-e8d36bf10, I see no performance impact, local or remote. -- Erik Falor Registered Linux User #445632 http://counter.li.org
