That seems wrong. Are you sure this is what's going on?
Mac apps normally remove key events from a queue. So if an app is
busy, the events stay in the queue until the app can get them. If
this app is missing events because it's busy, it means that it is
purposely throwing some events away, or that it's not using events at
all but merely polling the keyboard state. Either way, it sounds like
a poorly written app. What app is it?
