Fix CursorHold Performance

Rationale

This plugin exists for two reasons:

1. fix neovim CursorHold and CursorHoldI autocmd events performance bug
2. decouple updatetime from CursorHold and CursorHoldI (works for Vim and Neovim)

1., fixes slowdowns and untriggered events

2., you can now use small delays for CursorHold without writing the swap file 10x/sec (see :help updatetime)

This will result in more snappiness for plugins using those events, such as: coc.nvim, vim-gutter, tagbar, vim-devicons, vim-polyglot, etc.

Installation

Make sure to have the following plugins in your vimrc:

Plug 'antoinemadec/FixCursorHold.nvim'

Configuration

" in millisecond, used for both CursorHold and CursorHoldI,
" use updatetime instead if not defined
let g:cursorhold_updatetime = 100
