I would think it's expected for the key to appear after pressing the key, not
releasing it.

Running "GTK_IM_MODULE=none emacs -Q" and following the steps in the original
bug report, the lag appears to be fixed. I reproduced it three times, and each
time there was no lag. For reference, I tried again with GTK_IM_MODULE=fcitx
(how it was in the original bug report) and 4/4 times I experienced the lag.
I haven't ever experienced this sort of lag in Firefox or signal-desktop, two
gtk3 apps I regularly use. And just to clarify, the lag doesn't seem to lengthen
the interval between generated repeat key-presses. The repeated key-presses just
seem /choppier/, as if the frame-rate is lower. The lag is most obvious when
holding down a key and releasing after a single key appears.
I'll try using my normal config with GTK_IM_MODULE=none and see if I experience
the lag in everyday use.
Thanks
