Can confirm.
Not only typing is laggy, but also scrolling through JSON responses or selecting text.
It helps if instead of JSON formatted text I try to scroll through / select the text from the 'raw' tab

I am encountering the same issue on linux with the deb, I have found that mostly writing into the request body seems to cause issues (syntax highlighting refreshing?), but I haven't tested it extensively yet.

I am not qualified to debug issues like this, but I did my best in the dev tools, maybe it'll be useful to someone.

This is defently a huge issue.

Writing in the request body or or getting the formatted response nearly brings the whole program to a halt.
(every action takes about a second)

I am also using the .deb file. My specs are:

OS: Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS x86_64
Host: MacBookPro16,2 1.0
Kernel: 6.6.16-t2-jammy
DE: GNOME 42.5
WM: Mutter
CPU: Intel i5-1038NG7 (8) @ 3.800GHz
GPU: Intel Device 8a53

But the bug also exists on mac os.

Disabling line wrap seems to help a bit, but not that much.

I have a suspicion that text inputs are modeled as controlled fields, which creates unnecessary work on every key stroke .

Here is the code that adds the onchange listener to the body, regardless of formatting.

github.com/hoppscotch/hoppscotch@00862eb192/packages/hoppscotch-common/src/composables/codemirror.ts (L289)

this documentation is relevant and this is the problematic func

@cdaringe The bug was fixed for me using the newest release of the desktop app.
Could you test it and close the issue if resolved?
