Subject: bug#12196: 24.1.50; setting cache-long-line-scans to non-nil freezes Emacs
Date: Tue, 14 Aug 2012 06:54:28 +0200

Hi,

I recently found this variable in the manual: `cache-long-line-scans'.

However, nearly every time I set it to a non-nil value, Emacs instantly
freezes, C-g has no more effect.

To reproduce in emacs -Q, e.g. type C-h n and then M-:
(setq cache-long-line-scans t).


Thanks,

Michael.
