Pasting a string with ~ more than 100 characters from the clipboard into an inputField is much slower than pasting the same string into the terminal directly.

@rivo commented on GitHub (Oct 18, 2019):

Yes. There's not much I can do about this. tcell generates one keyboard event for each character so I cannot bundle them. There will be attempts to speed up redrawing the screen in general but these will only be incremental. I don't expect this to get better significantly. Sorry.
