Rich text performance issue

[wysota]

In the second case you just draw text using a red pen. In the first case you have to parse HTML every now and then and do a bunch of other stuff. However I don't think drawing a red "Some red text" label takes that much cpu power. Your real use-case is much more complex.

hmm so I thought about this again today and I'm still not convinced... if it always takes the same cpu usage all the time when parsing html then ok. But initially it'd take only 3%-4%, then overnight it'd take 70%-80%. It just seems like there's a memory leak somewhere while parsing html because with a red pen I don't have that problem.

Appreciate your help, wysota

Please post a minimal compilable example reproducing the problem and I'll happily inspect it for you.
