AFAIK, there's a "fundamental" problem in the way C-g (= and generally
the event-loop) is handled which can cause excessive delays.
I do not know enough to say much more, but if someone could take on the
task of trying to fix this problem, I'm sure he'd find people here = who
could better explain the problem.

If I = can repeat the bad behavior, then I will work on coming up with a fix.

btw, I replied to Ivan on the flyspell issue saying pr= etty much the same thing but neglected to cc emacs-devel. =A0My bad.
