Looks like it's spinning on checking the framebuffer status, which is probably not something that needs to be done as frequently as it is. Putting that in a better spot would likely make it much more interactive.

Are you suggesting we not save lives so that we can avoid some unrealized fear of overcrowding? Suppose humanity attains indefinite life spans in the near future. Would you then advocate murder in order to save space? Should we outlaw antib

It is arbitrarily divisible. Fitting inside 64 bits is convenient, but hardly an insurmountable engineering challenge. There's libraries that handle this sort of thing with ease.
