I have only a G3 400 Mhz machine while not that fastest around I discovered something interesting. Here's numbers for a 20 run average using different terminal applications:
Apple Terminal.app 2.8145 sec X-11 xterm 2.597 sec. The X-11 terminal was consistently faster than Apple's Terminal.app. Only 25% of the runs in xterm were slower than the fastest time in Terminal.app. I'm running MySQL 4.0.13. Just thought that it was interesting.
