as: ah - since I'm using m76 I didn't see your nice sleeper thread thing to fix
this :-) that looks substantially better. So the speed-status-bar.diff patch is
now obsolete for m76+. However I'm less convinced the vcl patch is.

I'm still not convinced that 40 times/second is going to give a responsive GUI
behavior, of course, you've tried it - but in my recent tests, after the 1st
second, without the above patch responsiveness in other windows was dire - that
was processing one event every 100ms.

To give you some idea; when eg. an expose event comes in, gtk+ handles it, tries
to collate it with other events (for efficiency) / duplicate elimination, so -
there is a priority scheme. What this means is that we will process one incoming
X event per 40ms, but - we will never hit 'idle' - ie. we will never process the
much lower priority 'idle' handler that does the work of aggregating exposes,
and actually dispatching the redraw events to VCL [ which then of course, delays
them via another idle handler AFAIR ;-].

ie. if the X server is providing more than 25 X events per second - without the
above patch we'll never actually re-render :-)

ie. I think this is a real problem for interactivity, particularly with the gtk+
backend (which it affects).
