Sometimes Emacs starts eating CPU. Unfortunately I see this with my
patched Emacs. I have not seen this until today, but I have tested some
things today that I have not touched for a long while.
I can reproduce the problem. It often (perhaps always) happens after an
indent region in mumamo, but sometimes after other actions too (but
sometimes not after the same action). I tried to find out where the loop
is, but I can't find it. Even if I kill all the timers Emacs goes on
looping. But it is most of the time still responsive. (But no other
program is...)
Sometimes the looping stops a while after I have killed all buffers,
sometimes not.
It looks to me like a problem with screen update, but I am not at all
sure about this. (In that case overlays might be involved.)
GNU Emacs 23.0.60.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2008-05-06 (patched)

I think I found a cure. It looks like the problem was not at all screen
update, but that I deleted some local variables corresponding to timers
in nxml.
But I don't understand why I could not see those timers then.

etc/DEBUG has some advice on how to debug such situations.
