Delays in python/Tk

I have translated a drawing program I had done in Tcl/Tk into
python/Tk using Tkinter.py. Everything works as advertized
and it is great program except...
I am getting long delays before the lines get drawn on to the
canvas widget. I am putting a self.update() after each segment
but it seems to be buffering up quite a few lines before
drawing, or, (another possibility) is that there is a garbage
collection problem.

Has anyone seen a similar problem? If need be I can send out
the code.

Again, good job on translating.
