Dear all,
sorry for the late response.
Here some more observations:
It seems to really depend on the output length. As soon as I “clear console” it
is very fast again and slows down significantly the more lines of code are
printed.
The strange error-message ("IMKInputSession
presentFunctionRowItemTextInputViewWithEndpoint:completionHandler …”) is not
unique to the RGui, but also appears in terminal occasionally (not sure yet by
what it is triggered exactly).
I have installed:
XQuartz 2.7.11
XCode 8.1 (8B62)
And here is the output of sessionInfo():
