Description
Keybase GUI Version: 2.0.0-20180531221959+e59b6ec60d
Linux Mint Info:
RELEASE=18.3
CODENAME=sylvia
EDITION="Xfce 64-bit"
DESCRIPTION="Linux Mint 18.3 Sylvia"
It lags when starting up the app, but it is most painful when entering text in chat -- it takes 2 seconds after key-press for the entry to show up. I tried to purge the installation and re-install, but the behavior is as before. What happened?!

Research direction
Start by reproducing the startup and chat text-entry lag with Keybase GUI 2.0.0 on Linux Mint 18.3 Xfce, using the environment details in the report. Investigate the relevant GUI and chat paths while measuring the delay; done means startup and typed text respond without the reported two-second lag.
