My observation over time is that that running M-x garbage-collect
created the same effect just as when I observed that Emacs starts
doing something with hard disk and continues so for unpredicted number
of minutes. Normally so long until I kill it. It could be 10-20
minutes that I have waited. So that could be where the problem lies.
Something happens inside of Emacs, automatic garbage-collect is
invoked which cannot soon finish its job.
About 2 times I invoked garbage-collect manually and caused about
visually same behavior to take place. I hope you understand this
explanation.
