When pasting a rather long block of text into the editor (I noticed it more when pasting long lines), it's clear that the operation is much faster (nearly instantaneous) when line numbers are turned off. JOE appears to want to redraw every row each screen update. That simplifies the code but degrades this particular experience.
Note should be applied to colors branch as there are currently changes in the same area.
This might be fixed, possibly it was the issue from bug 311.
I can't reproduce this now that I've implemented a fix for [#409]. It stands to reason that the change of
ifhave && !linumstoifhavecould fix this, since it would block a lot of unnecessary line updates. Marking duplicate.Related
