    This particular type of interrupt exists because it would feel really bad if you were typing, and the text didn’t show up until several seconds later when the CPU felt like processing the (hopefully) buffered input.

    Meanwhile me enjoying multiple seconds latency when typing some commands in ssh using putty inside a windows VM using RDP accessed via a shitty corporate VPN from the other side of the world, while using another VPN because corporate blocked all traffics from other countries…

        It’s true. I ended up creating an ssh tunnel using autossh to a bastion server to escape the awfulness, but don’t tell the IT department I did that.
