Some parts are extremely slow, like array redrawing and moving of items on the canvas. These particular things can sometimes generate 1 megabyte a second of Tcl code. The same could be achieved by sending the right 1 kilobyte per second, or even less.

if bunches of floats could be sent in binary, it would save a lot of "bandwidth", too, but not as much as if they were trimmed to the strict minimum... we don't need 32 bits of precision to display on screen : 12 is enough.

the actual problem is not so much the "bandwidth", but all the parsing and unparsing. the [binary] command of Tcl can make things faster.
