Hi,

I'm using the GIT HEAD of Emacs' Cocoa port on MacOSX 10.5.8 PPC and GIT 
HEAD of AutoComplete <http://github.com/m2ym/auto-complete>. The problem 
I'm having is that the point in the Cocoa port doesn't return 
immediately after typing and a post-command-hook has fired off a 
function to be run with an idle timer. Supposedly AutoComplete should be 
a whole lot faster with the new timer-based completion trigger in HEAD, 
but this bug in the Cocoa port seems to be preventing that. I've tested 
this with Emacs 22.3 in the terminal and CarbonEmacs 22.3 and both has 
the cursor return immediately. I'm guessing something in the NS code 
that deals with the point render is waiting on the idle timer thread 
instead of having both threads running asynchronously?
