I run into this when using a large (2k) mosh terminal. Scrolling through a file is painfully slow: it seems to redownload the whole screen, even though only a small number of lines are new. Any insight?

That's exactly what I mean. It's annoying seeing as in theory the diff should have been small. But I guess it's just MoSH's algorithm not being quite clever enough. I wonder what can be learnt from video codecs in this respect?
