Can someone please try to replicate this problem by trying the above
snippet in an emacs that has been running for several days, for a
directory containing many files? Is this not causing problems for
other people (maybe emacs developers tend not to have long-running
emacs)? Previously I could have an emacs running for months without
restarting, but now I have to restart it every couple of days because
it gets too slow.
Cheers,
Len.
