[Bug 1376523] [NEW] Gedit text coloring function hangs 2x 1700MHz on certain or big content

 

Public bug reported:

Hello.


Gedit hangs (no interaction and then shadowed window) on certain content (attached) - especially when scrolling, for about 30 sec on 2x 1700MHz machine. I call it a bug :) . For sure text coloring function requires some optimization.

But forget about specific text, because anyway I have to wait 1-3 sec
for gedit to contemplate what to paint and how, still having the issue
from Ubuntu 12. Few seconds is not much but image how it slows
programmer work... though I can't stop using my beloved gedit!

Current machine configuration.

Ubuntu 14.04 LTS x64 on HP 655
Processor: AMD E2-1800 APU
Graphics: Radeon HD 7340 driven by xOrg " Gallium 0.4 on AMD PALM"
