(Get the code!)
Hi Mike,
To expand on what Kristina said, in Mahara 1.10 we split the old "Text box" block into two new block types: "Text", a lightweight block which only stores non-reusable text, and "Note", which has all the extra functionality of the old "Text box" block -- attachments, reusability, etc.
It sounds like you're talking about the 1.9 Text Box block (which is now the 1.10 Note block)? The Note block is almost exactly the same as the Text Box block, code-wise, so the same issue probably apply there. But, it's mitigated somewhat in 1.10 because:
1. Most Text Box blocks will probably have been converted to Text by the 1.9 -> 1.10 upgrade, so there'll be less of them to cause scaling issues. (The upgrade script converts a Text Box to a Note if it is used in multiple pages or contains attachments, and a Text otherwise.)
2. Users won't be interacting as much with the Note block, since they can now use the Text block for all the simple cases.
Cheers,
Aaron
