ZoomText causes slowness, freezing while switching between browser windows

Project Member Reported by leberly@chromium.org, Dec 13

Issue description

Google Chrome	73.0.3638.0 (Official Build) canary (32-bit) (cohort: Clang-32)
Google Chrome	72.0.3626.14 (Official Build) dev (64-bit) (cohort: Dev)
Windows 10
ZoomText 2018.1807.79 ILM

Steps to reproduce:
# Start ZoomText 
# Start Chrome, make multiple windows by peeling tabs off the main window or opening a new window
# Switch back and forth between windows using alt + tab

Expected: no freezing/slowness
Actual: first, I noted that the cursor highlight would remain in the same area of the screen from the first window regardless of which window had focus. After then, navigating around the second window, it would go from slow to non-responsive. I was unable to even close the second window. 

After I turned off ZoomText, the second window eventually just crashed and closed itself. However, I didn't get a crash ID in chrome://crashes.

leberly@ Thanks for the issue.

Tried downloading ZoomText software, but only paid versions are available.
Request you to provide the URL of free trial version of the software, if available, which will help in further triaging of the issue.

Thanks..

I'll assign this to myself to do this bisect since I have a license. Thanks!
