Implementing swingworker

[shivam0101]

Thought of making a small textEditor. It will contain two textareas, one for entering the text and one for error display. As for my understanding, SwingWorker works in background so there will be no delay in the UI updation. For checking, i wrote the below code and inserted 5000 lines and tried to type, i think as the line goes on increasing, the updation in textEditor2 is becoming very slow. Is the implementation of the swingworker is correct in the code?

textEditor1 and textEditor2 are JTextarea

This i have allready posted in stackoverflow.com

If some how i could manage avoid of making a new worker everytime i press a key i think it should work.

Thanks in advance

private void editorKeyPressed(java.awt.event.KeyEvent evt) {

SwingWorker worker = new SwingWorker<Void, Void>() {
    String text = null;

    @Override
    protected Void doInBackground() throws Exception {
        text = textEditor1.getText().toString();
        return null;
    }

    @Override
    protected void done() {
        try {
            get();
            textEditor2.setText(text);
        } catch (Exception ex) {
            System.out.println(ex);
        }
    }
};

worker.execute();   
}

Every update to that huge String copies the whole thing and adds on the new String to create a new Huge String.
Can you do it another way?
