THIS has to be one of the bugs we address ASAP.
Thanks Curry for doing the leg work on this one.
I hope the team is paying attention to this one.
This is one of the things that a new user has no hope of being aware of.
Thanks,
Tom

I was having problems with SE on Windows randomly causing crashes just by
clicking in the text are of SE.
When I switched off all the bling, I never had another crash like that. I
plan to slowly re-introduce the bling to see if I can identify which part
causes the crashes.

Resurrecting this thread from September because ...
now I've had a chance to go through my old bug reports,
and found the one for this Script Editor slowdown!

Have you disabled the SE "bling" options?
Bling is slang for flashy expensive trinkets,
such as Live Errors and Auto
Hi Lagi
I just went back and repeated my steps from a couple of days ago.
New start for IDE, new stack, pasted in the same 8,000 lines as a comment.
And this time there was no slow down. So it does look like any such
problems are less predictable than my initial test suggested. I toggled on

Hi Bernard,
I didn't make myself clear - it can work for hours with no slowdown at
13,000 lines on an older computer there is just no pattern.

One thing to check is whether you are using a fixed width font, and if not
whether you have the same performance issue with the SE when using one.

I pasted 8000 lines of text into Script Editor on Windows (just 1 large
block comment). On typing chars take a couple of seconds to appear once
there is that much text. Cut it down to 800 lines and it's fine.
With 8000 lines switch off "live errors" and the slow typing issue is gone.

I also have seen the autocomplete stop and start working, and that on a Mac. It
may have something to do with the length of the script. I have also seen the
extreme slowdown issue on Windows script editor and also in the performance.
Most of the performance hit is in the frequent saves I inserte

Hi Ben,
I did some testing using the CPU% in the task manager - i was trying to do
some more before sending in my results.
It looks like if it has been running for some time but the time is not
"quantified" at the moment as I have not been working
on my project much these last few months.

I don't use 6.7 anymore, but no, they do not. At least not to the degree they
do now.

Not "it". Instead a combination:
1. LC 7 Engine Performance issues.
2. New Windows antivirus trends affecting disk

I mean the script editor mostly but also the rest of the ide has a bit of jank.
Laying out interfaces on Windows has been worse than doing it on a Mac. The
worse offender is the script editor though.

Yes, and this is really disconcerting. Not sure how many Mac vs. PC devs there
are for LC, but I suspect it's weighed heavily towards Mac. I think in
retrospect, it may have been better to retain UTF-8 as an option, that is be
able to select unicode or not in an app. But I suspect that would be
to be honest, the IDE on Windows has been so bad for me that it caused me to

It's worse than the unicode text issue. Saving stacks is from my setup 7 to 8
