Do you use and progress bars? If so, I've found them very cycle-consuming, and I tend to update them infrequently now when I'm working with large data sets.

I'll confirm that. I recently wrote a script that had to process a lot of data, and I added a progress bar as a matter of course. The script took 6 seconds to complete. That felt like quite a long time, so I started adjusting the progress update to only change every so many cycles. The longer between updates, the faster the script ran. Then I had an epiphany and removed the progress bar altogether -- and the same data got processed in about a dozen milliseconds. The entire lag was the progress bar!

Rev is so fast, sometimes you forget.
