    Speed/Performance Problems

    Hi,
     
    We implemented CuteEditor into our application and we are having performance problems with it.  The problem is that by typing into the editor, it takes a significant amount of time for the letters to appear and the browser is not responsive during this time.  It seems to me as if the editor is doing something during typing, some kind of validation and/or tracking keystrokes or similar.  It seems like a lot of javascript code runs in the background during typing. 
     
    This behavior is even far worse for people that don't have very powerful computers (mine is a dual core with 2gb of ram, but some employees only have a p4 with 512mb or 1gb of ram), and they basically type the letters but those letters appear after about 3-5 seconds and it is so slow that even by typing fast, some of the keystrokes are being ignored.
     
    Are there any tweaks or any properties that can be set to improve the speed?  Are there any known issues with any of the features of the editor that might reduce the speed or cause a lot of javascript code to run during typing?  By this speed right now, the editor is unusable for our poeple.
     
    This is really urgent as we are short before a major release which should introduce CuteEditor as our html editor and if it cannot be fixed or improved, we might have to remove it from our app because our users will complain about this for sure.
     
    Thanks in advance,
    Navid
