Part of #11160
Context
While profiling some of Eric's PRs and one of my experiments, I've noticed following:
Terminal width/height are behind a lock and repeated access is quite expensive.
Changes Made
I've set it so that the update is happening only once every ~second or so. This makes the cost negligible.
Note that this appears to be ~1.5% CPU time saved on the main node, which is the one under heaviest load due to IPC with all the other nodes.
Testing
None, this should be non-disruptive change.
Notes
Refresh frequency is up to discussion. Making it twice a second should be fine as well.
