  I would appreciate some comments, ideas or past experiences related to
  this, and opinions as to what extent IV is suited for developing a GUI in a
  real-time application.

One  thing we failed to mention in our work  is that interviews double buffers
its rendering.  This can be turned off by the -nodebuf run-time option.
So in theory this should speed up an application although the flicker produced can
be distracting.  In the ice program -nodebuf does not seem to have an appreciable
effect on the speed of its scrollbars.
