Subject: bug#20927: 24.5; Cygwin Emacs completely blocks for 5+ seconds
Date: Mon, 29 Jun 2015 15:21:27 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <vriuvbe6abvs.fsf@example.com> (raw)
Hello,
When:
1. Starting Cygwin Emacs,
2. Opening whichever local file (`org-mode/lisp/org.el', in my case),
and
3. Keeping constantly our index on the Down arrow key to make the buffer
scroll indefinitely,
Emacs blocks (after 30 seconds scroll or so) for 5 entire seconds, and
then revives...
I've tracked down this problem in Cygwin Emacs, and it's due to this
line:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(global-auto-revert-mode 1) ; Auto refresh buffers.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
When it's commented, Cygwin Emacs behaves normally.
Note the above line does NOT cause any trouble in Windows Emacs...
PS- The above recipe is an easy way to reproduce the blocking
problem. But that problem occurs everywhere (in Gnus, etc.) at any
time: Emacs becomes unresponsive for a much too long time (from an
interactive point of view).
In GNU Emacs 24.5.1 (x86_64-unknown-cygwin)
