flyspell delay in org-mode

flyspell delay in org-mode

[Vinod Valsalam]

When using flyspell with org-mode, it seems to be spell checking on partially 
typed words without any delay.  This is affecting responsiveness of emacs 
while typing.  Has anyone else experienced this problem, and if so, does 
anyone have a solution?

Thank you very much!

flyspell delays checking after commands listed in
`flyspell-default-delayed-commands' and `flyspell-delayed-commands'.  The
default value of the former is

    (self-insert-command delete-backward-char backward-or-forward-delete-char
     delete-char scrollbar-vertical-drag)

But org-mode seems to use its own replacements for many of those functions.  So
I defined the latter variable as

    (org-self-insert-command org-delete-backward-char
     org-backward-or-forward-delete-char org-delete-char)

and flyspell behaves as expected.
