If anyone wants a fun test, try this (somewhat bloated) controller:

After the #import statements at the top of the file, open a C
comment /* without a closing */ and start typing. It beachballs my
PowerBook and G5, and even a MBP 2.2 can't keep up with my typing.
This is with no other files open in Xcode.
No beach ball for me on my dual G5 (I don't feel like going into the
other room for the PowerBook). However, typing is ridiculously laggy.
Just for a simple comparison, I tried the same thing in vim. There was
zero slow down in typing. As a somewhat useless data point, vim on a
dual 450 MHz G4 running Linux was just as speedy as vim on the G5.
Even in TextEdit, the text appears somewhat slowly. I wonder if this
is simply a symptom of using Cocoa for text.
