Hello. I have a C# application in which a LOT of information is being added to a Textbox for display to the user. Upon processing of the data, almost immediately, the application becomes very slow and unresponsive. This is how I am currently attempting to handle this:
var saLines = textBox1.Lines;
var saNewLines = saLines.Skip(50);
textBox1.Lines = saNewLines.ToArray();
This code is run from a timer every 100mS. Is there a better way to handle this? I am using Microsoft Visual C# 2008 Express Edition. Thanks.
