The is a small delay (ranges from about 0.5 secs to 3 secs), and then it jumps, just as if I had pressed C-l. I cannot find anything about this through google searches; no variables or minor modes, etc. > > Weirdly, it usually doesn't happen. I can have Emacs open for ages without this annoying behaviour, then suddenly it just starts happening. I have no idea why. I have tried to restart and isolate all the commands I am entering, but I have not been able to work out what could possibly be causing it. > > I can provide my init.el if necessary. I expect this is caused by auto-reverting a buffer-list. There's a bug there, I understand it has been fixed now though. BR, Robert Thorpe
