+
+When Just-in-time Lock mode is enabled, fontification is different in the
+following ways:
+
+- Demand-driven buffer fontification triggered by Emacs C code.
+  This means initial fontification of the whole buffer does not occur.
+  Instead, fontification occurs when necessary, such as when scrolling
+  through the buffer would otherwise reveal unfontified areas.  This is
+  useful if buffer fontification is too slow for large buffers.
+
+- Stealthy buffer fontification if `jit-lock-stealth-time' is non-nil.
+  This means remaining unfontified areas of buffers are fontified if Emacs has
+  been idle for `jit-lock-stealth-time' seconds, while Emacs remains idle.
+  This is useful if any buffer has any deferred fontification.
+
+- Deferred context fontification if `jit-lock-defer-contextually' is
+  non-nil.  This means fontification updates the buffer corresponding to
+  true syntactic context, after `jit-lock-stealth-time' seconds of Emacs
+  idle time, while Emacs remains idle.  Otherwise, fontification occurs
+  on modified lines only, and subsequent lines can remain fontified
+  corresponding to previous syntactic contexts.  This is useful where
+  strings or comments span lines.
+
+Stealth fontification only occurs while the system remains unloaded.
+If the system load rises above `jit-lock-stealth-load' percent, stealth
+fontification is suspended.  Stealth fontification intensity is controlled via
+the variable `jit-lock-stealth-nice' and `jit-lock-stealth-lines'."
