Very interesting point!  I would think that keyboard key up/down 
messages should be held
in a FIFO for the GUI to handle as it is able, but maybe it doesn't work 
that way.  I tend to
use underpowered computers, but don't have a base thread at all, as all 
my machines are
servos.  But, I was quite surprised to see this problem seem to become 
MUCH worse than
it had ever been after an upgrade.  That could have changed the amount 
of CPU time
burned in the servo loops or the GUI.  I suppose I could try to get some 
diagnostics of
how much CPU time remains available, but I don't notice the typical 
sluggish mouse
behavior when the RT ia eating all the CPU.  I do not have a high-end 
graphics card on
that system, so it is using the i810 basic VGA (I think that's what's on 
that motherboard)
and doing a lot of the Axis rendering in software.
