I've added code to sample the number of line updates in a given time period and using this to calculate the number of updates per second. I've added the ability to change the time passed to setInterval, since this obviously modifies the rate at which we update the data. The good news is that (unlike a few years ago) everyone is fast enough to render both files smoothly. As I get my notes into a usable form, I'll send updates to the list. G.
