Windows Terminal version

1.23.12811.0

Windows build number

10.0.26100.0

Other Software

No response

Steps to reproduce

I use the following command to split current tab into 8 panes

wt -w 0 split-pane -VD `; move-focus previous `; split-pane -HD `; move-focus right `; split-pane -HD `; move-focus first `; split-pane -VD `; move-focus right `; split-pane -VD `; move-focus down `; move-focus left `; split-pane -VD `; move-focus right `; split-pane -VD

Expected Behavior

Current tab is split into 8 panes

Actual Behavior

Terminal app is frozen and not responsive. I also tried use custom actions with the same command, still same result. This behavior is 100% reproducible on a low-spec PC, less frequent on higher end machines. The same command worked fine last month.
