Do you still see the problem? If so, could you > try to make a recipe for reproducing the bug? I do still have the problem, although I have not updated my emacs since July 7th. I will try to update it now, and will let you know in a couple of days time if things are degraded. It is very easy for me to reproduce, because it happens always :-) Perhaps my emacs usage is unusual in some ways that cause the degradation over time. I typically have emacs running in one terminal window, and two other emacsclients connected. In terms of long-running emacs operations/code, there is the following: I run wanderlust as my primary email client. Running all the time. I run erc for IRC. Running all the time. I have a cronjob that fetches ics calendar files, and invokes a new emacs -eval with icalendar.el to convert to diary format, and if there are changes, invokes emacsclient -c -eval to tell the running emacs to refresh its diary. I often have a bunch of Java code buffers open - this bug particularly affects JDEE performance because it involves lots of directory scanning when switching projects or opening new java files.
