This is a known problem with vi. I don't know the correct solution, but
it is not NetBSD specific, and is mentioned on several vi help pages.

A workaround is to use the h j k and l keys for cursor movement.

The problem is that the cursor keys send more than one character, and if
the interval between the two is too big, they are interpreted as two
different keystrokes.

It should be possible to set a line speed somewhere, but I can't
remember where.

Neither. It's a vi timing thing.
