Bug#408759: closed by Guillaume Delacour <gui at iroqwa.org> (Closed because gnome-terminal 2.14 is outdated.)

Dear Josselin,

OK, so 2.24 seems improved. Which code change done that? Could that
please be added to the changelog, cross-referenced to this bug?

Are those times for flushed ($|=1) or unflushed ($|=0) output: do you
see a significant difference between those, and can that difference
be reasonably explained? Could the X server be improved (though that
is "not this bug")?

Thanks, Paul
