Upon further investigation, it's not a bug. It's a scaling issue. I was scaling the window larger, and perhaps the person from stackexchange was as well. Once I kept the windows about the same size, the issue went away.

To be clear, there is keyboard lag, but it is only present when I stretch or maximize the game beyond startup size. Apologies if there is already an issue present for this.

I get this as well on OS X version 10.14.5

What happens if you change your PRINT_MODE setting in init.txt to STANDARD?

Changing the PRINT_MODE to FRAME_BUFFER worked for me.

OS X 10.15
DF version 0.47.01

The file to make this change is ./data/init/init.txt

Can confirm. After double-clicking on the df executable, I expanded the window size instinctively and noticed pretty quickly that the CPU shot up to 100+%, fans were going crazy, and there was a very noticeable lag after each keystroke in the menu. I didn't even start up the game because I figured there would be an issue there too. The fix by Pixel-Axe worked great — after updating the PRINT_MODE setting, CPU for df is now 4% and there's no noticeable keyboard lag.

I just downloaded 0.47.04. I am using macOS 10.14.6.
