That's your problem, right there. vte as shipped in Gnome 2.8 was very 
slow and major performance profiling was done later on (in 2.12 or 2.14, 
I'm not sure).

You should definitely try to update your "fat server" to a more recent 
Gnome stack. It might not be perfect and there's probably some more room 
left for improvements, but I think you'll find it a huge win over what 
you are currently using.
