I'm trying to use an NSTextView to display the output of a shell script, but when my script outputs too much data, too quickly (on the order of a dozen lines nearly simultaneously), my app gives up with a pinwheel. I'm using an NSPipe to get the data, readInBackgroundAndNotify to know when to put it in my view, and [[[myTextView] textStorage] appendAttributedString:] to do the actual view updating. After a while, when my view starts to contain thousands of lines or so, attempting to do any scrolling causes a pinwheel for some length of time. Any ideas on how I could do this better?
Have you tried using Shark or Spin Control to find out why this is happening?
