Ok I solved this problem. The solution was to increase the delay in the
output on the server to the client, so the client does not get flooded with
messages.
I think this delay factor will have to be a user tunable paramater.
Interestingly the increased delay does not seem to slow down the screen
updates much, but it greatly improves the response time since there is no
longer a large backlog of messages to process.
I have noticed several times while working on my project that sometimes you
can improve performance by slowing things down. Odd.
