Haven’t checked if this is already reported, sorry.
When submitting bug reports with the bug button () during a review session (although, possibly at other times while using the site, but I’m not sure about those), I’ve noticed that two things begin to happen.
- Text that has been edited within the main text box of the report gets duplicated and is visible below the text box while editing. It remains even after the bug has been submitted.
- In this particular bug report (screenshot), I happened to have edited the text quite a bit, and you can see that the number of different copies of the text are overlapped. It seems to me that the more copies get duplicated, the slower my browser’s UI on that page seems to respond. I still have that tab open, and I’m now doing the rest of my reviews, but it is much slower. Whereas typing out this here comment on the forums I experience no slow-down. I suspect that the duplicates of the textbox content are cluttering up the UI’s rendering/etc.
Solving #1 should probably solve #2.
Also, reloading the page will also resolve the issue, but since I’m in the middle of a review session, I suspect that would mess up my ‘wrap up’ queue, so I’m going to trudge ahead despite the slow-down, and then reload.
