Ah, I think I've just found what slows it down. I think everyone who tried it probably did what I did, create a new stack, a new scrolling field, a button for your script, and clicked the button. We see a rect zoom open (well, some bits of it). I just found that if I put some text in the field it takes longer, going from 26 ticks to 97 ticks. That was just a few lines. How much text is in your field? Does the text use lots of styles, type faces? Is the field locked, plain, scrolling, list?
Then I wondered what would happen if I put a LOT of text in the field. I typed: "This is a test". I selected all in the field and paste, paste, paste, about 10 times. Select all again, paste paste paste again. Repeated this about 3 times, all the time I'm pasting larger and larger amounts of data, it soon grows. After very little time Revolution Unexpectedly quits. It seems Revolution has a bug limiting the either the paste amount or the field size. OS X 10.1.3; Revolution 1.1.1b2.
