Scenario:

I want to paste, say, 50 items as sub-items to a pre-existing item. I select an existing sub-item of the item and paste (pasting by selecting 1- Plain Text and then 2- Paste all lines into selected item(s). 49 new items will be created).

Result:

If I do the above in a regular Grid, fast.

If I do the above in a Scratch grid, where just one Scratch grid is open under IQ, fast.

If I do the above in a Scratch grid, where multiple Scratch grids are open under IQ, very slow (but it does finish, and everything is pasted properly).

This might relate to my non-supported use of Scratch grids (i.e. having multiple Scratch grids open simultaneously). But, for optimal workflow and efficiency, I usually wind up having a few Scratch grids open simultaneously (which is, to me, one of the many excellent capabilities of IQ).

Comments

I investigated further. Agreed, the problem does not appear when I first open IQ, or for days even. I finally encountered the problem after about four days into use of IQ (I tend to leave IQ open for days on end). I did not deduce an obvious trigger (going forward, I'll keep looking for a trigger). As an aside, IQ did seem to become a bit sluggish about two days into use, after I pasted 1000 items (copied from a web page in MSFT Edge) as new items in a single paste operation. This was all on V127.0Pre12. Updating to Pre13 now. I should note that closing and reopening IQ resolves everything. Thanks.
