This is a universal problem with simh. It emulates doing nothing as
fast as it possibly can.
I've thought about seeing if I couldn't hack in a select() statement
somewhere to make the simh process sleep a millisecond or two every time
some very common goalpost is reached to make it feel like it's running
on much slower hardware, but that would require free cycles on my end of
things.
