When Emacs is non-responsive, there are always the same things to look at: 1 - is it fully unresponsive: i.e. does C-g break out of the hang? 2 - if C-g breaks out of it, what backtrace does it give, if you set Options -> Enter Debugger on Quit? 3 - If C-g doesn't help, run Emacs under a debugger and while it's frozen, interrupt the program from the debugger and check the backtrace (and do that repeatedly a few times, comparing the various backtraces you get, so as to determine at while level of the backtrace is the looping happening). -- Stefan
