| This shit has been bugging me for too long, so I went on a hunt and found a workaround. | |
| The Symptoms are as follows: | |
| * Clicking the address bar results in a 1-4 second delay | |
| * Opening links in new tabs results in a 1-4 second delay | |
| * +T results in a 1-4 second delay | |
| * `PressAndHold[<pid>]: IMKServer Stall detected` is present in `/var/log/system.log` at the time of the hang. | |
| It appears to be to do with the PressAndHold helper - the thing that shows an IOS style selection of accents when you hold a key down. | |
| The fix may have some unwanted effects, I haven't really noticed any. |
