I am getting multi-seconds input lag delay when editing the “back” of cards. I am talking 3-5 seconds on average. It is getting to the point where Anki has become almost unusable.
The lag has a very specific characteristic too. When I add characters to the end of any line in the text box, there is not much lag. But when I try and add characters or spaces before the end of the line, the lag is really bad. However this is only on the edit view - in the “add new card” view, the text input lag is the same whether at end or start of line.
I don’t know if it related to a version upgrade, but here is my system info:
I wish I could say it’s fixed completely, but it’s not.
The strange thing now is the lag ONLY occurs with entering space into either the edit card or new card windows. I.e. when entering an ALNUM character, there is no lag.
The lag for a single space character is typically 1-3 seconds. So it’s better than before, but still pretty bad to have this lag happening.
Yes, the issue has likely been fixed. But, there is no release with the fix yet (not even a beta). So, unless the OP knows how to compile from source, there is no way they can test it now.
