On my ancient PPC G5 cheese-grater, svn head editors are very very slow relative to 4.1.4. I note the following things:

1) I can get *way* ahead of the keystroke buffer. In particular, if I type 160 characters quickly, it takes svn head 15 seconds to get them all onto the screen. In 4.1.4, on the other hand, DrScheme takes them as fast as I personally can type them, in this case 154 chars in 5 seconds. So, this is at least 3 times as fast, possibly much more.

2) Pasting text from one buffer into another is a particular problem, often taking many seconds.


Perhaps this is a PPC-specific issue?
