I am using rxvt-unicode also as my main terminal emulator. Its true |
| 42 |
colour emulation bothers me also but just only a little bit. |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
As a second one, xfce4-terminal runs here from time to time (seldom). A |
| 45 |
quick time/cat test with a gcc-5.4.0 log file (approximately 25 MiB) |
| 46 |
shows surprisingly that xfce4-terminal runs six time faster than |
| 47 |
rxvt-unicode. Maybe one reason is that urxvt looks for URLs and email |
| 48 |
addresses to colourising them. |

Maybe you can get a suggestion from [1]. |
