Thanks Eli. I built from master branch and this appears mostly fixed to me, although I'm still getting a similar temporary freeze when moving point backwards onto a problematic line, e.g.

1. Emacs -Q
2. In scratch buffer, M-x fundamental-mode (just to be sure)
3. M-^ on the second line (to join a line of 80+ chars)
4. M-: (put-text-property (region-beginning) (region-end) 'wrap-prefix '(space :align-to 81))
5. C-n until point is past text line
6. C-p

Here I get a temporary freeze.

However if I resize the window wider than 80 cols and navigate point around, there is no freeze.
