I verified this with print 100000*'a', also XP (home) sp2.
The sluggishness continued after getting the prompt back 
and trying to do something simple, like 2+2, taking maybe 
1/2 minute to print 4 and then the >>> prompt again.
The sluggishness *also* continued after restarting the 
shell (^F6).  This indicates that the problem is with the 
window, not with IDLE.  Hope someone can try same on *nix 
system to see if general with TKinter or specific to Win 
systems.
