This bug report will be sent to the Bug-GNU-Emacs mailing list
and the GNU bug tracker at debbugs.gnu.org.  Please check that
the From: line contains a valid email address.  After a delay of up
to one day, you should receive an acknowledgement at that address.

Please write in English if possible, as the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators for other languages.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug, and
the precise symptoms of the bug.  If you can, give a recipe
starting from `emacs -Q':

>>>
The basic problem is that if I set mark and then quickly move the cursor
around in any direction with a reasonable rapid sequence of cursor movement keystrokes,
the cursor becomes invisible and there is no highlighting until I stop
typing for a moment. So there is no visual feedback on where point is and it
greatly slows down movement to the desired destination.  It seems that I need to pause about 1/2
second between keystrokes for the cursor and highlighting to be rendered on
the screen.
This is reproducible:
Start 'emacs -Q';
C-SPC (to set mark at the end of the buffer)
Then in somewhat rapid succession, perhaps 1/4 second apart, type C-p C-p C-p C-p
There is no evidence of movement while the C-p's are being typed that point is
moving up the screen until you stop typing and point suddenly jumps 3
lines up and it shows all lines highlighted.

If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
For information about debugging Emacs, please read the file
/opt/swt/install/emacs-24.2/share/emacs/24.2/etc/DEBUG.
