I notice this as well, reliably, when I pipe it through a shell script
(to use it over ssh) -- except in my case it's every 10 or so. When I
tell the shell to sleep 0.02 between each message it's fine. 0.01
doesn't quite do it -- whatever "it" is. Not that that's a solution
(more like throwing darts blindfolded) but it might help point someone
in the right direction.

By the way, as I mentioned on IRC a while back, when I was playing
around with this, I discovered that I could get the emacs UI to skip
every nth message just by having "notmuch search" cat a text file of
search results. That could make testing easier.

Best,
Jesse
