Hi Tommy

Answering your Qs:

Q) Does it mean that I have 288 chars typed?
A) Yes. 'wc' is word-count, by default it prints 3 numbers:
    number of lines
    number of words
    number of chars
  The last one is 288 - number of chars.

Q) Isn't it too low number?
A) Not if auto-repeat generated 288 chars

The main question is how _long_ it took to print these 288
chars. If you held the 'c' key down for 6 seconds, it means you
have 48-chars per second generated. This is pretty fast and means
you're probably not losing chars. I can get a max of about 50cps
in autorepeat, so this is healthy.

If you get lags, I would try to understand better what's causing
the extra load: start with 'top' (anything highly CPU intensive?
suspicious?) then look at the logs /var/log/* during the exact
time of the lag (every log message has an exact timestamp).
Any errors?

etc.
