Right now, I'm working on profiling gnome-terminal vs. xterm:

        * Launch (several instances in a row)
        * Outputting a very large file

For each, I'm recording:

        * Result of bash's time
        * Sysprof profile
        * terminal CPU usage and X CPU usage during that time
        * responsiveness of system

The results are sort of interesting so far; I hope to finish getting
them all together within a few days (not that there's mountains of data,
but I'm sort of busy :), and providing a temporary link for review
before I blog it.
