Some benchmarks that are a bit more apples to apples. 45 updates per second using terminal or local write. 38.5 updates per second using the value property, signalling or not. 2500 updates to the terminal when Synchronous Display isn't turned on. This means 2500 data writes, but only 30-40 redraws. In otherwords, it isn't data drawing that is slower, but it is the fact that terminals are less synchronized. Since property nodes are purely UI, they always update synchronously, as do the other properties. If you want to speed this up, by not seeing the data, use the Defer Panel Updates property of the panel. 1360 updates to the signalling
