Hiya guys.
I dont know if this has been reported or fixed yet in current but here it is.
BUG: 
On the sample implementation you have an issue with bash and key maping.  If 
you are slow releasing the shift key it will cause a nice loop and cpu usage 
of 100%. 

100% reproducable.

FIX: 
Attached you will find a patch for this to fix it.
