   The nasty effects are probably caused by the keyboard interrupt, which
probably is very time-consuming.
   Maybe what you can do is install a server in the input.device chain,
at a higher priority than intuition (who is at 50, I think) and then just
throw every keyboard event away, so they don't get processed. Perhaps it
is intuition that is causing the problem.
