1. Start emacs with emacs -Q
2. Read in a large python file (3100 lines long, more than 10,000
    characters)
3. Near the top, type the following:

def function():
    """

4. No further input is accepted.
5. CPU usage is 100% as shown in /usr/bin/top
6. type kill -USR2 {process_id_of_emacs-Q}
    and the emacs window closes.
7. From my emacs started without '-Q', when I type
    killall -USR2 emacs

Thanks.

Please post such a file, or a URL where it could be downloaded.  I
couldn't easily find such a large file on my system.

Dear Eli,

Thank you very much for your helpful and rapid response.  Emacs has
never let me down in daily use from 1993 till this problem came up.

It turns out that it is not the size, but some pathological
arrangement of the code.  I have provided a much smaller sample here
that I can reproduce the problem with by:

1. Move the cursor to below the from elesewhere import ... line.
2. Press Enter
3. Type:
def function():
     """

4. At this point, CPU usage goes to 100%, I cannot type anything else
into the buffer, but I can send a USR2 signal to end the 100% CPU
usage, but the buffer has only partial syntax colouring.

I will build an RPM package of emacs 29 and test that.

OK, thanks.  I can indeed reproduce this in Emacs 28.2, but not in
what soon will become Emacs 29.1.  So I think this problem was already
solved between these two version.

Thanks.  I will wait for your confirmation before closing the bug as
fixed.

A bit too late into the discussion, but I noticed that this is probably
a duplicate of bug#62325, which has been fixed for Emacs 29.

I spent a couple of hours attempting to build an RPM package from git,
but each iteration takes a super long time, and I cannot afford to
spend a longer time from my work.  I may try again on the weekend.

For me this is a really big problem, as it has happened in other cases
of editing Python programs, and it is a big slowdown and interruption
to my workflow to restart emacs with lots of frames open.  Emacs has
always been so solid till this.

Fedora will not package emacs 29.1 before it is released.  I hope that
is soon.  F38 is due in 13 days, so this issue is likely to remain.

It would be fantastic to backport the fix.

Is it easier for you to try the pretest tarball?  If so, you can find
the pretest here:

You could try the python package available in GNU ELPA. It hasn't gotten 
an "official" release in a while, but the development archive has new 
versions: https://elpa.gnu.org/devel/python.html

This is the same code as what comes by default with an Emacs build. 
Maybe it would make sense to bump the version so that there's a new 
non-devel release on GNU ELPA. That way, anyone on an older Emacs can 
benefit from the fix for this issue.

Thank you very much, Eli.  I successfully built an RPM under mock that
runs on Fedora 37 and am now free of that bug, and another that
prevented the formatting of docstrings.  Great, my faith in emacs is
restored, and I can continue to be productive with it.  My spec file
is here: https://nicku.org/software/#emacs-29.0

I pity all the other people stuck with 28.2 who work with Python and
who are plagued by this barrier to getting things done.

Thanks for testing, I'm therefore closing this bug.
