Thanks.  This talks about delays of an order of four, or at least
some small, seconds.  Such values were surpassed a long time ago.
I would not likely even pay attention with these. :-)  Maybe I
should?  We are talking about minutes now.

I do no think that this is a CPU issue.  My test box if far from the
fastest in the world but this is a reasonably spiffy x86_64.  Low
clocked Z80 should likely be able to handle all what was left to
handle with a time to spare.

I will have to check an information about eggcups Tim was asking
about a bit later.  If there are some processes which are waiting
for something would not be possible to leave them in a background
and proceed with a logout?
