[sldev] Scroll back buffer causes rendering pauses.

[Mike Monkowski]

It probably has more to do with the amount of text in the chat window 
than the amount of time you were logged on.

You could set up an object to spam you with chat (llOwnerSay) to see how 
the rendering responds to a lot of text.

The maximum buffer size for the chat history is 2 GB (defined in 
floater_chat_history.xml).
