A lot of time is spend for the Text-Attributes. The code is very slow
indeed. If you can life with plain text, without this fancy attributes
you can speed it up by commenting out the last line in
VT100Morph>>displayLine:at:put:color:emphasis:
displayLine: lineNumber at: charPos put: aCharacter color: aColor
emphasis: aTextEmphasis
| line |
line _ displayLines at: lineNumber ifAbsent: [^self].
line at: charPos put: aCharacter.
"self setAttributes: line at: charPos color: aColor emphasis: aTextEmphasis."
