I run two copies of LH, plus two copies of a Symmetricom monitoring 
program, simultaneously under Windows XP Pro on an old Dell with a 
233 MHz Pentium II.  The user interface is snappy on all four apps 
and the LH clock updates are 1/4 to 1/2 second delayed compared to WWV.

Could Linux/Wine be slowing you down?

Best regards,

Charles
