What can I do to make emacs run faster?

I tried rlogin to media-lab.media.mit.edu from freeside.ai.mit.edu (bobcat),
and then rlogin to a media lab bobcat.  When I run emacs on scrappy
(the media lab bobcat), the refresh is VERY slow.  Whenever I hit ^L,
or ^V (or meta-V) emacs displays the screen excruciatingly slowly.  My
TERM is always = 300h and it doesn't matter which bobcat I rlogin to.

Also, I tried `more' and `cat' from my shell prompt, and they work
fine, so it's not a problem with the network communications.

I also tried rlogin from ATHENA -> MEDIA-LAB -> bobcat (with TERM =
xterm), and got similar results.
