Screen capture of the problem

SUMMARY
When the system is under load, content of both normal and vector layers turns invisible after applying any transform. Usually when an operation takes a long time, there is a progress bar under the layer name in the Layers docker. However, in this case, there is no progress bar and the transformed area does not reappear.

Layer content reappears when the canvas is redrawn (e.g. tool change, window focus change).

Curiously enough, I have not seen it happen when transforming selections.

It seems similar to bug https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=408057, but it happens on Linux and also I have reproduced it only when the CPUs are overloaded (image size or layer count do not seem to impact this issue).

I have reproduced the same behavior on 4.2.8, 4.2.9beta1 and git master.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a document in Krita, create a layer, draw something
2. Stress the system (compile Krita in the background on all your cores, or use some synthetic load generator, like stress-ng)
3. Switch back to Krita, select the Transform Tool, do any transformation available
4. Confirm the transformation with the Enter key

OBSERVED RESULT
The transformed area turns invisible.

EXPECTED RESULT
The transformed area reappears after some time. There is a progress bar in the Layers docker showing that there is an operation in progress.
