I currently don't even use dt, just the raw console. I always run
an xterm to my 486/66 when I'm doing much though. I would say that
any improvement in the speed of the console would be great, provided
it doesn't adversely affect interrupt latency. I use my little IIci
as a www server (for fun), and don't want my console to starve the
ethernet/scsi activity.
