This is a bug that I met only on freebsd boxes (freebsd 5 actually, I did not test it on freebsd 4), with emacs 21.2 as well as 21.3 running in XWindow mode. The XFree86 installed is version 4.3.0. When blink-cursor-mode is disabled (and only in that case), and I try to input a character using the compose key, a seemingly random time (roughly between one and thirty seconds) elapses between the time I release the last key of the compose sequence and the time the letter shows up on the screen. If I hit another key (even a non-printable one, like shift), the letter appears immediately.
