I have, see other posts, and it's about 1/2 as fast as rxvt(-unicode).
But the deal breaker for me is the color support. It's not nearly as
good as xterm or rxvt(-unicode) (here my bash prompt that is set to some
nice colors is displayed as underlined in gnome-terminal and blinking in
konsole). And another realy nice feature of rxvt(-unicode) is that the
text rewraps if you change the window size.
