[Originally sent to Mike L., but not to the list, as I'd intended. Mike says
Bare Bones support is aware of the problem.]

After opening, wait a few seconds and then just typing some characters

I see this on a brand new MacBook Air with 10.7 and a older MacBook Pro with
10.6.8. Admittedly, they share the same BBEdit Application Support and
preference files.
Anyone else see this?
I see this was copied to me because I had said I hadn't seen the problem
before. Now I have.
Additionally, BBEdit runs away with RAM, filling all available space. This
freezes the app for up to half a minute. After the runaway, syntax coloring is
strange (I've reported the details to Bare Bones support). You should report
your experience to supp...@barebones.com; maybe your experience will give them
the clue they need.
This sort of thing historically happened when a document had very long lines,
and BBEdit got bogged down in soft wrapping and syntax coloring. The longest
line in my most recent problem LaTeX file seems to be 756 characters, which
doesn't seem unreasonable to me.
BBEdit 10 isn't completely unusable with this problem, but it's close.
