No need to.  There's a delay built-in there.  We added it way back
when so that you could actually see the mobiles driving around and
such for demo purposes.  Without the delay it's a mishmash of
drawing going on and you don't see the whole picture until it is
done.

The original intent was to add a user-specified delay, so that it
could be used for demo purposes w/delay, or for sucking in a log
quickly w/o a delay.  I think that's still on the feature request
list somewhere.
