Larger values work too, but it takes more time to get the pasted
result. If I put 100, it takes about 2 second to get the paste
event. Maybe keeping 5000 would work too but I don't have the patience
for Emacs to unstuck. The bug comes and goes and since I do everything
in Emacs, I cannot keep it live for too long.
