Instead, sometimes the help text is shown immediately, sometimes it is shown only after, say, 30 seconds, and sometimes after any number of seconds less than, say, 30. I'm not sure, but I think the problem might be somewhat more pronounced for items on a submenu or a subsubmenu. The same problem occurs, regardless of whether tooltip mode is on. That is, it happens whether the mouseover text is shown in a tooltip or in the echo area. This bug renders mouseover help on menu items useless, and it makes Emacs look pretty bad. Worse: because the help text for a previously mouseovered menu item remains displayed, a user can read it mistakenly as the help for the item the mouse is currently over. That is, the text is not removed when you move mouse away from a given item, just as it is not updated when you move mouse to another item. The help display is, well, the opposite of helpful.
