I cannot reproduce the slow-down on my machine (Windows XP). What I
see is constant time, give or take 2%, with no growth trend
whatsoever.
I don't have access to GUI sessions on any configuration close to this:
> In GNU Emacs 24.2.1 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.24.10)
> of 2012-09-17 on queen
> Windowing system distributor `The X.Org Foundation', version 11.0.11103000
> Configured using:
> `configure '--with-gif=no''
Can anyone else reproduce this?
Jörg, does this happen with earlier versions of Emacs, like 24.1 or
23.3?
