Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-terminal
When I first use gnome-terminal, it starts out at an acceptable speed.
However, after 5 minutes or so of use, almost everything I do in it
(scrolling, any command with output, vim, sometimes even just typing)
pegs the CPU at 100%. Doing a "reset" fixes the problem for another few
minutes. This problem is independent between tabs, so if one tab is
slow, another might still be acceptably fast.
My instinct is that it has to do with the scrollback buffer. If I
immediately enter vim, that terminal seems to be immune from the effects
of this bug. Even when the buffer size is well within reasonable limits
at under 200 lines, gnome-terminal still pegs the CPU at 100%.
** Affects: gnome-terminal (Ubuntu)
