Hello,

Before looking inside the LCL code the effect could be explained as TMemo text property is completly erased and rewritten each time something change in the text, so when the last line is changed, internally the whole content is erased and replaced by the new one. When the OS component receives the new text it seems to send some messages to itself to adjust scrollbars (which begin/end update will block), the first one remove scrollbars, the next one fill the text, as the text is larger than visible part scrollbar goes to the bottom (this will not happend with begin/end update).

The strange thing is that this behavior should produce high CPU usage but not a up/down one line effect, so something is wrong either in LCL or in the Memo Windows control.
