Added some test code (currently commented out) to limit a remote visual

slave to a specific frame rate (i.e. 30hz).  This is potentially desireable
if you are running on the ragged edge between 30/60 hz ...
It would be nice at some point to make the code a bit more flexible and
configurable so it could be activated from the command line or preferences
file.
