Emacs 23.1.50.1 hangs ramdomly for 6-8 seconds on Windows XP

Question

I have EmacsW32 23.1.50.1 emacs working on my windows XP machine. It hangs randomly for 5 to 8 seconds and quite frustrating.

Any one has solution?

I even trie

Answer 1

Without some debugging output it will be difficult to say what is causing the delay.

Since delays are often caused by IO operation timeouts, I recommend running Process Monitor to see what Emacs is doing while it is hanging.
