      Typing seems egregiously slow, greater than one second per character. Are there any settings that would cause this?

        Nope. Sounds like your CPU is busy (Ctrl+Shift+Esc, then go to details and sort by CPU descending). It might be NPP itself (doubtful), it might be a plugin (possible), or it might be something else that’s running (probable).

            another known issue is to have a really big one-liner and try to edit it.
            Scintilla, underlying component Npp uses, isn’t really performant in such cases
            as it wasn’t designed to do so.

            Cheers
            Claudia
