Issue with RichTextBox UI Freezing During Async Operations

Hi everyone, I'm encountering a peculiar issue with a WinForms application where I use a RichTextBox to display translated text. I have an asynchronous method that performs text translation and appends the translated text to the RichTextBox. The method works well for the first 15-20 lines of text, appending them as expected. However, after that, there seems to be a delay of 15-20 seconds where no new text is added to the RichTextBox, although the application itself does not freeze. The text appending eventually resumes. I'm looking for insights into what might be causing these intermittent pauses and how to resolve them. public async Task TranslateAndAppendTextAsync(string textToTranslate, RichTextBox richTextBox) { try { // Simulating a translation delay await Task.Delay(1000); // Assume this is where translation happens string translatedText = $"Translated: {textToTranslate}"; // Update the RichTextBox on the UI thread if (richTextBox.InvokeRequired) { richTextBox.Invoke(new Action(() => richTextBox.AppendText(translatedText + Environment.NewLine))); } else { richTextBox.AppendText(translatedText + Environment.NewLine); } } catch (Exception ex) { // Exception handling Console.WriteLine($"An error occurred: {ex.Message}"); } }
