Progress gauges slowing things down

Thursday, 16 March 2000

        For some reason, progress gauge takes a very long time to come up and
disappear.  It seems as if there was a (sleep-for 1) hidden in the
code.

To repeat, try opening a very small .c file with progress gauges.  The
delay is very noticeable and quite annoying.  I often hit this when
replying to messages in Gnus (Gnus "message" mode uses font-lock for
highlighting.)
