Well, I also had a few times here recently where the output trickled
in one character at a time, with maybe 3 or 4 characters per second,
for maybe half a minute before things caught up again.  But since I
also have the replication problem, and all of this is pretty much
nondeterministic, I was not able to nail this down.
