Om my (slow?) laptop I get: |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
frame-buffer: 34 l/s |
| 27 |
rxvt-unicode: 12 000 l/s |
| 28 |
xterm: 4500 l/s |
| 29 |
Konsole: 6666 l/s |
| 30 |
gnome-terminal: 6666 l/s |
| 31 |

_not_ faked :) |

And another thing I love about rxvt(-unicode) is that if you change the |
| 35 |
width of the terminal the text rewraps ie: it follows the window size. |
