System name:		ithake
Type and version:	MVAX-II 7.3P (1 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		PLX

What were you trying to do?
	Typing text into emacs or the composition window of
xmh under 7.2 with mwm or 7.3 with vtwm.

What's wrong:
	Missed keystrokes.  I am not a fast typist.  My keystrokes will
stop appearing in the window, and then after a few seconds an initial
subset will apear in the window.  The rest are lost.  This is irritating
if you are doing blind typing.  I would say that this happens on average
twice per page.  Outages average about five seconds.

What should have happened:
	Emacs and xmh should have caught all the text.
