Accordingly to emacs bug tracker your problem was fixed 5 years ago:
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=16737
Yank causes hang

I saw hangs trying to paste from X clipboard but I decided that 
conditions were quite exotic. I experimented with running browser as 
untrusted X client. Firefox was unhappy, emacs (running as usual) 
started to eat CPU on attempt to yank text copied from browser. Since I 
was unsure what selection operations are not allowed to untrusted X 
clients, I decided to just give up. However I believe that emacs could 
behave better in such cases.

If you have steps to reproduce, you could file a new bug.
