[ESS] ESS: running blocks of script very slow

performance difference is dramatic, but I do miss being able to see the

In my impression this is very slow even for commands with low calculation demands (e.g. defining functions etc.) compared to other GUIs that I have so far tested (Rkward, Standard R-GUI).
