When the display is set to an Exceed X-server and fonts are specified
(either explicitly with the -fn option or implicitly with X resources)
then the fonts may appear "too tall". The actual character sizes are
! correct but there is too much vertical spacing between rows, which
! gives the appearance of "double spacing".
To prevent this, turn off the Exceed's "automatic font substitution"
feature (in the font part of the configuration window).

* display-time causes kernel problems on ISC systems.
Under Interactive Unix versions 3.0.1 and 4.0 (and probably other
! versions), display-time causes the loss of large numbers of STREVENT
cells. Eventually the kernel's supply of these cells is exhausted.
! This makes emacs and the whole system run slow, and can make other
processes die, in particular pcnfsd.
!
! Other emacs functions that communicate with remote processes may have
the same problem. Display-time seems to be far the worst.
The only known fix: Don't run display-time.

address@hidden says:
The problem is that in your .cshrc you have something that tries to
! execute `tty`. If you are not running the shell on a real tty then
! tty will print "not a tty". Csh expects one word in some places,
but tty is giving it back 3.
The solution is to add a pair of quotes around `tty` to make it a single
! word:
! if (`tty` == "/dev/console")
should be changed to:
! if ("`tty`" == "/dev/console")
Even better, move things that set up terminal sections out of .cshrc
and into .login.
