[iterm2-discuss] Slow scrolling in Build 3.2.20180720-nightly

[Steve King]

Did something change with scrolling in Build 3.2.20180720-nightly? I
have a 9995 line file (500 KB) which takes over 30 seconds to `cat` out
to the screen.  I can `cat` the same file in Terminal.app in under a
second.  I never actually timed it before, but as of earlier this week
iTerm felt a lot closer to the Terminal speed. What's up?  Scrollback is
set for 10000 lines, I can open a bug with full debugging info if this
isn't something you just slap your forehead over.

Thanks for pointing this out. I rewrote a background task that monitors job
names and there was a performance regression. It should be back to normal,
or a little faster, in the next nightly build (due out in a few minutes)
