Performance Concerns
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Because the ANSITERM terminal driver uses buffered screen writes for all
screen painting, some operations, especially those that scroll the
screen, are slow. These include:
1. All box drawing commands and functions
2. All console commands and functions when scrolling
3. All clear screen commands and functions
4. All restore screen commands and functions
5. Standard out functions (OUTSTD() and OUTERR()) whether the screen is
scrolling or not
Note: Overall performance of CA-Clipper programs is slower since
the ANSITERM terminal driver must spend more time polling for user
events than the standard CA-Clipper terminal driver.
