please give detail. What exactly is the mode? and what exactly you
mean by macro? What do you mean by emacs window stuck? For how long?
Also, OS and emacs version.

you need to be specific and give concrete detail.

one thing of note is that emacs doesn't support thread. Practically
this means that most things you do in emacs, emacs needs to finish
that first. This is especially noticable when do do network related
things like ftp. Don't know what is your macro. But if that is
computationally intensive, few sec wait is prob right.
