Trying to produce the error delay in a restrictive environment without great success. Did get gedit running on some of my c++ programs thinking maybe it was a plugin that was working. Did see that when I was looking at a line and moving the cursor with the arrow keys that there was a definite delay. As I moved the cursor across the line not every key (arrow right/left) was immediate as I would expect (system was doing nothing else). Did dump the journal at the time and passing the snippet of the time I started gedit and when I observed the delay. Will continue to try to better document this problem.

While typing information into the gedit window the keystrokes get delayed 1-2 seconds from the time the keys are struct and when the character(s) show up on the screen. It's as if the system was too busy to service the key input but that doesn't appear to be the case. This problem doesn't occur on the current gedit running under 20.04. Any suggestions on how to document this problem?
