Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: I can't reproduce the issue on Linux with the Entry widget, but can reproduce it with the Text widget. The difference is that the Text widget wraps its content on multiple lines. Looks the code for dynamical splitting the text on lines has quadratic (or larger) complexity. IDLE itself already suffers from similar issue for output text (issue1442493).
For issue1442493 we can preprocess output text. I don't know if we can add a handler for preprocessing pasted text, and wherever it is worth to do. Even if this is possible, new code can be too complex for such corner case. ---------- components: +IDLE priority: normal -> low type: crash -> behavior versions: +Python 3.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26169> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
