Subject: 1st character change in file takes forever
Date: 17 Dec 2002 15:46:55 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m08yyodagg.fsf@bloombergREMOVETHISPART.com> (raw)
When I first try to insert a character into a buffer that is
associated with a file on disk, the insert takes close to a minute!
Before attempting the insert I can do whatever I want, e.g. split the
window, change to the *scratch* buffer and insert text there. Response
is instantaneous. After getting passed the first character, everything
works fine, even if I try to insert a character into a new file.
The behaviour remains even when I start emacs with
emacs -q --no-site-file
or even
emacs -q --no-site-file
I have tried this under GNU Emacs 20.3.1 (I also tried it switching
the "emacs" executable to GNU Emacs 20.3.1).
My OS is
Linux sleepy 2.2.5-15 #1 Mon Apr 19 23:00:46 EDT 1999 i686 unknown
Any ideas how I can try to track this down? I tried
(debug-on-entry 'self-insert-command)
but emacs tells me that it is a primitive (surprise, surprise).
