Now you say it is not an issue anymore. So I'm confused! We're talking about two different issues. There was the large file (named .gif, though it wasn't really one) which took minutes to redisplay. You installed a fix for that problem, right? Then there's the problem you reported, where redisplay took a few seconds, and that was long enough to be pre-empted by selection requests from Klipper. That is also a serious issue, but it is due to a Klipper bug and we can address it sufficiently by telling users "Update your KDE or don't run Klipper". Isn't that so?
