Hi!
Once again I had the case of being forced to press "j" half a dozen times
until the idle clock mechanism frees the keyboard for regular input.
I watched the idle time display in the minibuffer. It changed fro mkeypress
to keypress so this really looks like there are stacked up many timers.

Regards,
Rainer
