It would seem part of my problem is that my terminal has too many
columns...   A few months back I got a 30" monitor, when one maximizes
the terminal and does "echo ${COLUMNS}" the result is "423" ...   rows
are around 113 or 114

At this width, when I do "aptitude install" with some large package,
aptitude freezes as soon as the "[speed/sec]" is shown on the right side
of the terminal.

When I reduce the size of the terminal down to a smaller width/height, I
do not experience the same freeze ups...   I suspect the freeze ups
eventually crash out...
