Issue

Pasting a large amount of text of SSH causes the window to become slower and slower until it completely stops responding. I've mainly been copying 170k files over via copy+paste as I use pbcopy on my Macbook to load the file in from an app I'm working with.

Research direction

No source file or test is identified in the report. First reproduce the slowdown in vanilla Hyper by pasting a large text payload through SSH, then trace the terminal input and rendering path to locate the bottleneck. Done means large pastes no longer progressively freeze the window.
