I mistakenly pasted about 1 mb of text from the clipboard into a conversation and Element. Initially I tried to delete it, but deletion caused the program to freeze. Although the UI was frozen (I let it sit for about 2 minutes), Element had saved it as a draft and performed a normal quit. The text was still present in the input box the next load and therefore the room hasn't been usable because the bug becomes a loop.
Steps to reproduce
Gather large amount of text (1.0 mb / 14223 lines / 1,063,246 characters in my case)
Paste it into text box
Select all, delete text (UI should freeze)
Quit application
Restart application
See large amount of text in textbox saved as draft
Select all, delete text (UI should freeze)
Quit application
Restart application
See large amount of text in textbox saved as draft
Select all, delete text (UI should freeze)
Quit application
Restart application
See large amount of text in textbox saved as draft
etc.
Possible solution(s)
Truncate text at an arbitrary amount that is high enough to not be noticed, but low enough to keep performance in check.
Evaluate for any unnecessary text processing during delete text action (delete keypress, delete event)
