Title:
  vim locks up when freeing lots of objects

Status in vim package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in vim package in Debian:
  Unknown

Bug description:
  When using a heavy plugin (e.g. unite, ctrlP, many others), vim's GC
  is stressed. vim's GC has a performance bug which causes it to be
  O(n^2), which results in vim freezing up when it runs. This is fixed
  in a newer version of vim. This patch should be considered for
  backporting.
