Lokaltog/vim-powerline — Issue #44: Redraw issue when switching buffers (gVim, Ctrl-6)

When switching between (or among) buffers, the window buffer position switches temporally to the first line, then bounces back to the proper current position.

This causes a screen refresh artifact (like a refresh flashing), and gives a feeling of vim slowness.

Here is the way to reproduce it:

1) Open syntax highlighted source code file (file1.c)
2) Open a new file (file2.c)
3) Maximize gVim
4) Use Ctrl-6 to switch between buffers, pressing quickly multiple times is easy to nottice (i.e. keep pressed but use a very high keyboard refresh rate).

Using: Windows X.P, Latest gVim 7.3

The redraw issue disappears once I disable vim-powerline

Please keep the good work!!! Kudos!
