Terminals don't just render what you see, but everything that programs output, which can be enormous amounts of text, grinding non-accelerated terminals to a halt. I don't know if they actually have to do this (It might be necessary for seamless scrolling?), but building some partial rendering might be more complicated than GPU acceleration as well. I'd be interested if someone knows more about this.
