[ Asks for help speeding up scrolling on Sun workstations ]

In the Emacs distribution the file etc/TERMS discusses terminal
problems like yours.  In particular, near the end of the file:

The Sun console should have these capabilities for good performance.

Add the above line to your `sun' termcap entry (or get your sysdamin
to do it) and scrolling will be much faster.
