I'm not sure what sit-for you're referring to here.
The user hits
`M-x'
which enters a recursive edit, and the "M-x" is displayed immediately.
Then, sometime much later, the user says "emacsclient -nw". Then there
is a one-second delay, and then the Emacs server filter executes the
actions the client asked for.
Now, the recursive edit is exited by `server-goto-toplevel', but
instrumenting all of this (i.e., the server filter function) is giving
me inconsistent results -- that is, I can't actually pinpoint where in
the code the wait is happening... perhaps because some redisplay is
inhibited somewhere? I'm not sure; it's somewhat frustrating...
