Jittery motion when holding j/k/e/n down

See original GitHub issue

What did you do?

Open a file with enough text to fill a couple of screens. In normal mode, hold down any of kjen to move cursor multiple positions up/down/right/left.

What did you expect to happen?

Move cursor multiple positions in sequence, by the speed of the keyboard button repeat.

What happened instead?

Cursor sometimes jumps arbitrarily back and forth, jittery. Holding down normal arrow keys does not have this jittery motion, so seems related to extension. Sometimes the problem is less noticeable, but it generally happens very often and is annoying enough that I resort to other motions. The gif does not capture the problem very well due to low fps, but it does show some of it. 2016-07-28_15-08-08

FINALLY got this fixed. Turned out to be a weird sort of race condition.

Hi there! I’m currently on 0.4.9 and still experiencing this issue. I’ve just installed, and so I’m not sure if there’s a setting that I need to adjust to help with this issue?

Thanks!
