I'm using the python-mode included with this version of emacs. I have (add-hook 'python-mode-hook 'turn-on-eldoc-mode).
When I move to any keyword in a python source file, expecting information to be shown in the minibuffer, emacs appears to freeze. I can't move point or type anything. When I hit C-g, then the effects of all the typing I did during the "freeze" appear. So if I hit C-u C-n while frozen, after C-g, point moves down 4 lines. I tried toggle-debug-on-quit, but I didn't get a backtrace when I hit C-g.
