Openmotif : Performance issue : XmListSetPos() is very very slow

Solution In Progress - Updated -

Issue

As per upstream openmotif bug 1536 Performance issue: XmListSetPos() is very very slow

Using XmList widget to show log output of an application (the XmList is used to highlight errors and warning in different colors since XmText does not allow to do this).
After a new line of log is inserted, scrolling the list to show last line
using XmListSetPos(). Motif is very very slow, especially when
application is running on remote computer.
