I doubt it. The process interaction performance of Emacs (just
receiving data from a pipe via an output filter and inserting into a
buffer) is awful even when the buffer is not on-screen. XEmacs is
easily twice as fast, and that is still slow. preview-latex's
operation was sped up considerably by making its error messages have a
shorter format.
