When I press alt+enter to open the config, mushclient'll hang up to 30 seconds, with heacy disc/swap activity. During that time, the text `Calculating size of output buffer` will be displayed on the Status bar.

For displaying on the "Info" screen MUSHclient scans through every output buffer line (for that world) adding up the amount of memory taken.

It shouldn't really take 30 seconds, but if it is doing that I might have to change it to only do it when the Info page is displayed.

You could reduce the time by reducing the number of lines in the output buffer.
