After upgrading from ubuntu-18.04 to 20.04 I noticed that when clipit is running, selecting text via shift-rightarrow in any app (gedit, chrome, firefox) makes Xorg stop updating all apps' window contents. And clipit goes to 25% CPU, while gnome-shell jumps to 100%.
Closing clipit makes the UI responsive again while selecting text via shift-arrowkey.
This is on an idle DELL e7440 laptop (i5-4210U with 8 GB of RAM) and a fresh ubuntu install.
