right-click -> clear in terminal is very slow. The speed seems to scale with the quantity of history items... can take more than a minute (!) to clear the terminal with thousands of lines in the history.

When I focus the window and paste into terminal, it can take so long to even respond to the focus that it appears to have not received the focus message (terminal cursor is just the box outline instead of solid box)... so I focus and paste again... then it catches up all of the sudden with both pastes concatenated.

Generally the UI seems to have regressed badly with the last update or two

@drewfowler thanks for filing an issue, can you please try these steps to create a performance profile so we can investigate further? https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/wiki/Performance-Issues#visual-studio-code-is-sluggish

[jrieken]

@gdiviney1 please file a separate issue as there is no indication that your and @drewfowler have similar causes (they only have similar symptoms)

[drewfowler]

• hmm not sure why that file was empty. Will try again

[drewfowler]

I always get this error with trying to Save profile.

"Failed to save timeline: The request is not allowed by the user agent or the platform in the current context. (NotAllowedError)"
