Once Wireshark is up, is it usable [going to Gerald's suggestion]?

Its a little lagy but usable. I wouldn't want to use it all day long, but its ok for intermittent use. My feeling is that its slower than other things running on that machine over X (yast, xterm, emacs, etc). Those are all pretty usable. In those applications the lag is there, but its not bothersome at all. The ping latencies are fairly fast

 icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=2.59 ms
 icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.409 ms
 icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=0.702 ms
 icmp_seq=4 ttl=64 time=0.623 ms
 icmp_seq=5 ttl=64 time=0.967 ms


Really what was killing me was the startup time.
