gives me the impression it's refreshing everything from
cursor-to-end-of-screen even tho most modern processors wouldn't
have much trouble even with that.
try the same tests with vim at a console <e.g. alt f3>.
try the same tests with vim in rxvt or xterm.
try the same tests with gvim in its own window.
try the same tests with mc in gnome-terminal.
where's the pattern?

DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #49 from Will Trillich <will@serensoft.com>
:
Looking to ENCODE OR DECODE SOME ROT-13 TEXT? No problem.
"Vg'f rnfl jvgu Ivz." It's a simple alphabet substitution where
each letter changes to its counterpart 13 places away in the
alphabet (a<->n, g<->t, etc) . Open the text in Vim, then
select it (type "v" at one end of the text to encode/decode,
then move to the other end) and then type "g?".
Or, to rot-13 a whole line, just "g??". That's all!
(Try ":help g?" for more info.)
