I'm using the latest byond version and this happens every time I edit a sprite. https://i.gyazo.com/51a1752c389b954511a4aa8782520a49.gif

This usually happens when you have a lot of icon states in an icon file. I had a similar issue like that before. My guess is that it needs to re-read/write the file each time the icon state has been edited (possibly sending the edited icon data to the file from the buffer).

edit: I like your Windows 98 compression for the gif, lol. 256 colors?

The list control has some performance issues with large numbers of icon states. There's already an issue for this so I'm just going to close this one.
