Freezing on each midi region edit

I’m running Ardour 9.8.0 “The Equatorial Stars” (rev 9.8) Intel 64-bit. Each time I resize, move a midi region or edit a note inside it Ardour seems to freeze for about half a minute. This makes working with midi extremely frustrating. Seems like this start occurring after copy pasting a region multiple times throughout the track.

I’ve also noticed that if a project has many midi regions it takes really long time to load it up. Something is clearly not right.

Never had anything like that on older versions, but since I wasn’t really working with midi for a while I’m not sure which version introduces this problem.

What could be freezing it? Is there any way to fix this?

Can you make an example session available?

Here you go: Session example

I’ve uploaded to LimeWire, let me know if you want me to share the session file in a different manner.
