(In reply to Christoph Cullmann from comment #9)
I've managed to report about 5 new crashes with Konsole, albeit none from the
search functionality.
Specifically, when I have > 5 tabs all following the output of `cat
/dev/random` (despite, genuinely helpfully, Konsole putting the scroll at the
beginning, when one searches, to prevent this), Konsole can hang for < 7 s,
when I search for `.` with RegEx enabled. However, never long enough for the DE
to prompt me (which is what matters), and Konsole always resolves it. I've
tested this at > 1 500 000 lines.
I'd say that Konsole's search functionality may now be the most robust of any
applications' I've ever seen.
