Subject: [wxRuby] Slowness of the TextCtrl widget

Hello!

I'm playing a little bit with wxRuby, and I noticed that the TextCtrl
widget is quite slow on Win32 (in the sense of: it lags, the letters
don't appear instantly, especially if you leave a key pressed).

This affects e.g. wxruby/samples/toolbar/toolbar.rbw

Before I begin to investigate this issue, I'd like to ask if somebody
knows whether this is
(a) a problem with ruby
(b) a problem with wxRuby
(c) a problem with wxWidgets
(d) me doing something wrong

I also noticed that there is almost no CPU usage while typing keys, so I
think it's not a ruby preformance problem or something similar (maybe
just a redraw problem?).

I'm using "ruby 1.8.2 (2004-12-25) [i386-mswin32]", "wxRuby 0.6.0 BETA"
on Win XP

Thanks,
Sebastian
