Bug Description
********* RaiMan tested and confirmed
after about 40 seconds runtime, the type command pauses about 10 seconds at key release for each following single character/key.
This is the same problem as we had with click actions with OSX 10.10.
It was caused by some strange behavior of the Java Robot deep inside.
At this time, type() was not yet affected. But now it seems to be.
this is my test script, that recovers from the situation with an intermediate highlight.
# TextEdit must be running with an open text window
switchApp(
x = "asdfghjklyxcvb
type("a", Key.CMD)
type(Key.BACKSPACE)
wait(1)
start = time.time()
for i in range(50):
type(
for c in x:
lap = time.time()
type(c)
if time.time()-lap > 1:
getCenter
type("\n")
After detecting the extended delay, the problem is fixed by the highlight.

After Upgrade to Sierra the Type Command seems very Slow
Is anyone else finding this or is it just my old Mac struggling
I have to check, wether the click()-delay fix works as well here.
