Write activity redraws each paragraph on every keypress

Reported by: natetheis Owned by: uwog
Priority: High Milestone: Unspecified by Release Team
Component: Write Version: 0.88.x
Severity: Unspecified Keywords: slow lag write
Cc: Distribution/OS: OLPC
Bug Status: New

Description

Observed in both os852 and Dextrose. Typing more than about 10 words into a paragraph will gradually become slower, the paragraph will start blinking on each keypress, and Backspace will be slower than a slug in leg irons. Uses a ton of memory, as well. Makes Write nigh unusable on XO-1.

Correction: The memory use seems unrelated.

Observed also on XO-1.5 with os852. Did not detect unusual memory use.

Tested in v73 dx2, it seems that now it only redraws the last sentence of the paragraph. not-painly slow backspace.
