Hey just wanted to jump in and add some more information on the midi editor slowdown being reported.
If I open my current project in Reaper showing the arrange page and the mixer, the GDI objects in the task manager shows 289. When I open the midi editor it jumps up to 329.
Here's the suspicious part. I'm using one editor per project. If I then make a new midi item and move some notes around, the GDI jumps to 359. If I delete that item and open another item and do nothing else, it stays on 359. If I then in that same item just move some notes, it jumps to 369. And just keeps going up.
So, it seems like this is similar to a memory leak except pertaining to GDI resources. That GDI number keeps going up with midi editor usage until you reach a certain number and then the slowdown occurs. Obviously conjecture on my part, but seems pretty suspicious to me so wanted to chime in with that info.
