Yes, I tried the emacs-26 branch as well. What I reported was from
that branch's build.

Did you try C-g 2 or 3 times? If so, did it help?

I agree the result is not good even if Emacs behaves like it does on
my system, which is not a total freeze. I'll try to see if I can find
some reasonable way out of this situation.
