Yes, that makes sense, thanks. Maybe I'll put a comment in there saying
that.

This particular feature simply hasn't worked out well. If the
background scanning were to complete in a few seconds, it wouldn't be
too bad. But nearly two minutes on a modern (well, 4½ yo) machine for
just one buffer, with the annoyance of the "stuttering", is not worth
the gain.
What we have is effectively the entire buffer getting half-fontified in
the background. That's not what JIT fontification is supposed to be
about.
So, in the next few days sometime, I will revert most of this change. A
useful and harmless piece of it (fontifying a newly found type
throughout the buffer when it is encountered in "normal" jit
fontification), I plan to leave in. That will get rid of that timer and
all the background scanning it triggered.
