    Description

      I develop on Windows 10 on gaming laptops.  After an hour or two in Qt Creator, the text editor gets very sluggish, sometimes the key-to-screen lag is more than 5 sec.  And it gets progressively worse.  It may somewhat depend on which edit window I am using, but affects them all.  Restarting QtCreator clears the condition for a while. 

      This has affected every recent version of QTcreator I have used, but it seems to have gotten worse in 4.10. 

      I have seen something similar with a few other apps, but most do not have this problem.  I suspect it is due to a pathology in some aspect of keyboard or screen handling in Win10, that is not universally used. 

      I know it is not nice to ask people to debug Windows, however it might turn out that a workaround is not too hard to find.
