That could be due to specific events firing, I don't really know, but it is not documented anywhere I could find.

What is documented is that mappings expire after 'timoutlen'
milliseconds. Abbreviations are not explicitly mentioned there, but I
imagine that they might share part of the mapping code.

- Try setting 'timeoutlen' and 'updatetime' to very different valuies so
you can easily tell which of them is relevant;
- If 'updatetime' does trigger abbreviations even when very different
from 'timeoulen', does it make a difference if you remove any CursoHoldI
autocommands that you might have?
