If someone wants line numbers in Emacs, could they please use Stefan's nlinum-mode instead? linum-mode is a terrible idea squared. It abuses post-command-hook. It moves overlays and changes the window's display margins on the fly, and by that kills almost every redisplay optimization (so don't try using it if you are accustomed to many windows and many frames, especially large ones). It is evil. We certainly shouldn't make it more efficient. It should die a horrible death. Soon. Thank you.
