Has anyone pointed out what is happening? On paste (right
click), PuTTY sends each character from the clipboard over the
SSH session to the server where Vim is running, as if you had
typed the character. I do not know the details, but PuTTY must
somehow throttle sending in order to avoid overrunning the input
buffer on the server. My guess is that slow pasting is an
unavoidable consequence. I don't need to use PuTTY much, but in
the past I have found it easier to use a separate command prompt
window to upload a file (pscpy) with whatever text I needed,
then read it into Vim (:r filename.txt).
