The refresh rate problem possibly has a neat solution from computing history. Surely those people using punched card and paper tape have some ideas that could be useful?

Maybe instead of updating the screen every keypress it could update every time Enter is pressed?

E-ink screens can do incremental refresh. http://youtu.be/OKCDXwCmPUA?t=15s

Though not with proper grey-scale rendering.
