Out of curiosity, what’s the gc threshold at? If it seems like a cumulative problem then maybe lowering that value might help. Assuming there isn’t a runaway leak.

Best,
Mudit.

This will make it interrupt what it's doing and enter the debugging, where you can see the stack of what it was doing. You may need to try a few times but this can give you an idea of where it's spending its time. I think the command is something like `killall -USR2 emacs` (on linux).

I have all these super keybindings, then I can wait 1.5 seconds to see if something happened. Can someone help me debug this? I ran a profiler, but I don't really know what to do with the output.
