Re: [Francesco Potorti` <address@hidden>] Slowness

   Francesco, do you have garbage-collection-messages set to a non-nil 
   value?  

No, I'll do that.

   Another possibility is that jit-lock starts to fontify some fragment 
   which takes a long time, and that postpones the idle loop where Emacs 
   checks whether something is available in the input queue.  So the precise 
   way of your jit-lock setup might reveal something interesting.

Never heard about it, so I suppose it's all default.
   
   If you have some program that shows CPU usage, it might be interesting to 
   look at its display while this slowness happens.
   
Okay.
