Selected text randomly changes when scrolling which makes copying the correct data very hard

I'm trying to copy some data out of a log file which spans multiple pages so that you have to scroll while selecting the text. Trying to copy the text afterward only copies a portion of it. Additionally scrolling through randomly changes the selection, and finally it is gone.
For example take:
Try to select all frames from the crashing thread and copy that over to a different application. Doing that on MacOS only the last handful of lines will be pasted. I expect to get all of them.
Cameron, this is a really annoying behavior and I think it did not only start recently. But it's not something I have seen months ago.

Henrik-- The log viewer we use only holds so much of the log in memory at any given time. We will likely try to expand the overscan amount to keep more in memory at a time, but that's only a partial solution. Your best bet is to go to the raw log for copying. It would be great to find a cleaner solution to this, but we won't be able to address this right away.
