The problem is that Emacs slowsdown and I have to keep typing until eventually it hangs. That can take a long time during which I have an unusable emacs, with garabled words and missing letters. And sometimes it doesn't hang. Is there anything else that I can do debugging wise does not involve waiting for a total hang?
