Hallo, I work with large amounts of database-output (from 10 to 200 MB), that I usually paste into a new opened TextMate window. When it is pasted, all works as expected. But pasting takes minutes. TM freezes and it takes much, much longer than other editors I tested (VIM, Atom, VS) until the text is visible and useable. I find out, that this is caused by the Clipboard History. I never heard of this before and do not use it, because I have the Clipy-App for that. Nonetheless the size of the clipboard history file was 1.3 GB. If I clear the clipboard history (control + option + command +v and then "Clear History") everything works normally, but in my case the CH grows really fast. So once a day I have to clear the history. In my opinion there are some solutions: - Decoupling the pasting process and the CH process. The CH process should run in background with lower priority. - Adding a setting to deactivate the CH. But in this case everybody, who use large text insertions run into this problems. - Limit the size of the CH. But if people rely on this, that can cause problems.
My hardware: - Macbook Pro 2013 with i7 and 16 GB RAM - Macbook Pro 2016 with i5 and 8 GB RAM same behavior on booth.
Thanks in advance Nils
