Hello,

just an update on this. (Thx for the ctrl-L hint, wasn't aware of that)
Anyway, the problem I described comes from the vim codebase. I just
downgraded to the debian stable version (7.2.445) and the problem is gone.
Vim redraws upon resize within milli seconds again. Vim 7.3.333 needed
several seconds for that and sometimes failed completely without a manual
ctrl-L.

I have to check how I can bisect to the commit in question to inform the
vim list about it.


kind regards
Ralf
