Not sure what the connection is to Cocoa development, but FWIW I've noticed that when I start a burst of fast typing in a text field, sometimes my first character appears somewhere in the middle or at the end. It's as if something is screwing up the event queue. I can understand if there's a lag for some reason before my events can be processed, but it kind of erodes my confidence in the system when my keystrokes aren't processed in the right order.
I'm quite sure it isn't due to mistyping. It's a definite pattern where the first character appears multiple characters later and the other characters are in the correct order. I should file a Radar. --Andy On Sep 16, 2011, at 9:09 PM, G S wrote: > Hi all. > > I'm seeing lots of duplicated keypresses on Lion.
