Hi Etsushi, thanks for significant information.

I've now understood what you felt in r143. Yes, my tuning may
affect performance for such situation.

After testing r146, I've found two distinct problems.

1. too short GC cycle (since r143)
2. massive slowdown (since r129?)

I'll resolve 1. soon.

And I also fix 2. which causes exponential slowdown by
autorepeating a hundreds of kana-char in uim-skk. It seems to be
caused by improper memory consumption.
