Interesting. I wonder what is bogging it down. Unfortunately, I recall you're on ppc, so you're stuck on Leopard, and there's not much chance of anything like that getting fixed for Leopard. When did this start to happen? Perhaps you've got something mucking things up. On Feb 11, 2011, at 05:30, Peter Dyballa wrote:

It can take many seconds, feeling more like minutes, until a text selection plus copy action in Mac OS X is available for pasting in X11 – can this process be sped up?
Mac OS X is guilty! It also takes a long time to copy from one application (a browser or Mail) and paste into another (Mail or the browser). For seconds the last contents fron an old copy action is available. When copying from a PDF, for example in Skim, it can take tens of a second, without spinning beach ball which would indicate that the system is not operable at the moment. It seems like the copy action itself is deferred. X11 seems to work OK and reasonably fast.

How many Microsoft engineers does it take to screw in a light-bulb? None. They just redefine "dark" as the new standard.
