Bug Description

Hi,

I am using the latest nightly kicad version, and a large project (>130k nets, 121 sheets). After upgrading to the latest kicad version from 5.1, eescheme has become very, very, slow.

As an example, copying a single netname, now takes around 10s.

===

To reproduce;

1. Click on a netname.

2. Copy it with 'c'.

3. Paste the copied net name.

I expect that it's immediately copied, like it was in 5.1, but now eescheme stops responding for around 10s, and then it pastes it.

This does not happen when I try and move a netname, only when I paste a label that I copied.

I am working on the same design as the one here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/kicad/+bug/1825268
