I reported this as a bug some months ago (last year?). Months later  
RMS sent me an eMail that this hard to find bug was eliminated. (I  
found it when 'make install' was executing. Lines scroll smoothly  
until mouse.el* are installed. Then the CPU gets a lot to do and no  
text is output. After some time text is output again and the cursor  
jumps back, or such.)

How *recent* is your source code for GNU Emacs 22.0.50? How did you  
get it? When does that error occur for you? In which buffer and mode?  
Does it also occur when you launch GNU Emacs with -Q, i.e. no  
customisation at all? (It might help and accelerate to write a  
little .emacs-init.el file with particular key bindings or other  
things you cannot forego, taken from your .emacs file, and invoke GNU  
Emacs as 'emacs -Q -l ~/.emacs-init.el &')
