noticeable lag while typing #93

Hey, when I type in fountain mode there is a noticeable lag between each keystroke and sometimes it seems that a whole (although mostly short words) only appear after I typed them.

So I experimented a little and could exclude that it's not entirely emacs (spacemacs) because a fully enabled python layer with pyflakes doesn't have the lag.

After reboot the lag is gone until I start messing around with other buffers, org-mode and a 2 window follow-mode setup. Again: Under those conditions any other mode works faster.

Fountain-mode is still workable. And I love it. But if there is a switch that disables some features to make it faster I would like a more responsive touch-typing experience in exchange.

Try start emacs with emacs -Q then M-x load-file RET [path to fountain-mode.el] RET and let me know if you can still reproduce the issue.

Sorry for the delay. Running vanilla emacs with fountain mode could not replicate the issue. So the problem is somewhere together with spacemacs. For now I use fountain mode without spacemacs.
