Easily testable:

1. Make a field
2. Type in it
3. Open the Script Editor
4. Type in it

If you see a significant difference, we'll know it lies in the SE scripts and not the engine.

Does it crash or hang?

LC's Message Box is very complex, so we can't guarantee that things affecting it will affect other layouts with heavy field use.

This can be tested similar to above:

1. Make a field.
2. Put whatever text into it that causes the Message Box to hang.

If it does hang it would be interested to see the text. If it has unusually long runs without linebreaks it may be the soft-wrap calculations eating up time.
