Specifically when does the status log window appear to update slower than expected?

If the FlashFXP window doesn't have focus then the status log window will delay rendering new lines for up to 150ms (6 fps), otherwise the update rate is 50ms (20 fps).

This should be very similar to v4, though the console window internals were rewritten in v5 to use Unicode and the processing/rendering of Unicode text is slower, especially when handling lines that word-wrap.

[Update]
I just compared the unit source code for v5.0 to the last v4.4 release and the refresh rate is identical, so it must be something else, please let me know specific situations with examples where you feel the status window is lagging behind.
