Is there any way to inhibit the "smart" scrolling emacs attempts to do? I was just paging through a program which had some large chunks of similiar text, and it took ~1.5 seconds scrolling at one point, while making parts of the window move up & down in an amusing way. (Normally this takes ~.2 second for a full page advance) I have also noticed this problem in gnus, where it will scroll the upper part of the window up, causing a blit of the whole window, and then write in the new subject line in the top window over the mode line, and then write a new mode line and display the new text over the lower 2/3s of the window.
