Try the following:
au InsertEnter * if exists("syntax_on")| syn off | endif
au InsertLeave * syn on
au CursorMoved * if &modified && exists("syntax_on") | syn off | endif
au BufWritePost * if !exists("syntax_on") | syn on | endif
As you can see, I added one event -- if you've written the buffer,
presumably its safe to syntax highlight.
