Claude Code's terminal display now redraws faster right after you type

What

Claude Code's terminal interface normally redraws itself on a steady timer (about every 16 milliseconds). Now, for a brief 50-millisecond window right after keyboard input arrives, it switches to a much faster redraw rate (about every 4 milliseconds).

Why

This makes typing feel snappier and more immediately responsive, since the display catches up to your keystrokes faster instead of waiting for the next regular redraw tick.
