Typing in the editor is very laggy on Linux #162

Since the 0.10.1 update, typing anything in the editor is very laggy: characters appear with about 0.5 seconds delay and almost never in the same order I actually typed them on the keyboard.

Possibly related: scrolling to the top of a file in the editor triggers a slower top-down refresh of the contents that apper in the editor. I actually see how the code is refreshed like in a bitmap, line by line, pixel-wise.

I'm using Ubuntu Linux 15.10. This problem didn't occur with previous Visual Studio Code updates.

Later edit: I've tested it again on the same computer, but on a 15 inch screen and it works ok, without any lag when typing. Only when Visual Studio Code is on a 24 inch monitor the typing is lagging.
