Any chance you're using the retro terminal effects? I've seem personally that feature seems to introduce a bit of lag.

Is this possibly #1311?

I'm not sure what retro terminal effects so I don't think I'm using them no!

We're doing performance and rendering work; I bet that this is going to be related to /dup #1064 and #778
