The common LibVTE-based terminals have problems with latency because they're deliberately capped at 40fps. Xterm doesn't have this problem. Gedit gained this problem when it switched to GTK3. The forced animation for scrolling doesn't help. Mousepad still has low latency, at least in the version included with Debian Unstable, but I worry that port of XFCE to GTK3 will make it as bad as GNOME.
