I guess this depends on the speed of your computer -- I didn't get 100%
CPU utilisation on that particular GIF.
But it's unfortunate that Emacs is so slow to display animated GIFs. I
have experienced situations where Emacs has become completely unusable,
especially when there's a lot of the animated GIFs. There is code in
image.el to try to detect when this is happening:
(when (and (buffer-live-p (plist-get (cdr image) :animate-buffer))
;; Delayed more than two seconds more than expected.
(or (time-less-p (time-since target-time) 2)
(progn
(message "Stopping animation; animation possibly too big")
nil)))
But perhaps a two-second timeout is too lenient, and it should stop
animations a lot sooner than that. Or perhaps the code is buggy...
