I agree.  The most annoying delay is in 'ispell-parse-output':

    (ding) ; error message from ispell!
    (message "Ispell error: %s" output)
    (sit-for 5)

So I need to waste 5 seconds several times during spell-checking.

It would be nicer to prepend this error message to any last displayed
message during these 5 seconds.
