Once you get several hundred lines, pretty bad. Every time there is a 
single line printout, the entire gui has a momentary hiccup that is 
perfectly timed with a new printout.

Nw.js is a mess. I wonder just how much we may have gained by moving 
from the dreaded tcl/tk onto it. Tried 0.20, 0.46.2 and 0.47, and all 
three behave differently when given command to not resize a window...

Pd window spawns in the top left corner, scrollbars have different 
spacing, pop-ups show on the left side of the parent window, the whole 
thing starts-up significantly slower... I'll stop there--you get the point.

Best,

Ico
