Package: nano Version: 2.2.4-1 Severity: normal Hi,
Since installing Squeeze (I was previously using Lenny, but did a reinstall rather than upgrading) scrolling down a line at a time in nano has been very slow. For a 12 kB, 300 line file scrolling down by pressing the down arrow key uses 100% of the processor time on a 1 GHz Pentium 3. I have always used the smooth scrolling option and performance has been fine in the past, but it is now extremely jerky, taking several seconds to update the screen. This is on a variety of terminal types: console, serial terminal, ssh/xterm and ssh/PuTTY. The computer is a server and doesn't have X installed. Scrolling up is fine (using about 20% CPU), as is scrolling down a page at a time using the Page Down key. Looking at the system information below, the only relevant thing I can see that might have changed is that I might not have been using UTF before, but I'm not sure.
