Why. Console is not a toolkit client (I don't think) and does scrolling just fine. Implementing features in raw Xlib is an alternative to use toolkit functionality. In any case, I dispute your claims about "an order of magnitude" difference in speed. That may have been true in X11R4; I doubt very much it's true now. The speed improvements in R5 are significant.
