When working on a board with a lot of pads, terminating a trace on a
high-fanout net results in a significant (a second or more) hang of
the entire UI. I haven't yet attempted to figure out what part of the
code this hang is in.

Steps to reproduce:

1) Open a large board file in pcbnew (I'm testing with
http://thanatos.virtual.drawersteak.com/unlisted/marblewalrus-switch.kic
ad_pcb)
in GAL mode. The hang does not appear to be reproducible in legacy.

2) Start drawing a track on a high-fanout net (GND is a good example)

3) Performance should be normal when the track is started and during
drawing, but when you click on a pad to terminate the track pcbnew hangs
.

Anybody with PNS experience (Orson, Tomasz, etc) care to investigate thi
s?
