gnome term uses anti-aliased font's so it's performance is going to be 
slower than that of xterm under similar circumstances... if you have a 
real fast machine and your graphics cards acceleration is mostly supported 
it will be smother than if it isn't. my 1ghz crusoe laptop with a rage 
mobility chipset scrolls a lot less smoothly than my athlon 64 3000+ with 
a geforce 4-4200
