Subject: bug#1782: 23.0.60; Cursor movement not fluent

CVS Emacs has in the last few days developed a problem with cursor movement. The cursor 
moves in "jumps", not fluently as it should. This holds true for vertical as well as 
horizontal movement. It is like a small waiting period has been inserted between each 
movement of the cursor for every 2 or 3 characters. The problem is more visible in 
terminal mode. 

In GNU Emacs 23.0.60.12 (i386-apple-darwin9.6.0, NS apple-appkit-949.43)
 of 2009-01-04 on hermes.local
Windowing system distributor `Apple', version 10.3.949
