Hi, John.

It might be worth looking into what version of tmux is in the NetBSD
version you have installed; maybe it has inefficiencies?  Ted Unangst
has a blog post at [1] titled "rough idling" where he talks about the
situation you're seeing in general and also mentions that a number of
efficiency fixes were made to the tmux in OpenBSD after the OpenBSD 5.8
release.  I don't know if the same fixes made it into the version of
tmux you have; maybe it's worth a look.

Regards,

Lewis
