Git-status plugin: Panel is blinking when inside git directory

[scholer]

(Version 1.0.5, Windows)

Whenever I'm inside a git working directory (a directory containing a .git folder), the "Size" and "Time" columns are blinking. Also, CPU usage on my computer jumps from 1.5% to 7%. Disabling the "jumpfm-git-status" plugin (by removing the line in package.json) eliminates the blinking and makes the CPU go down to about 0.5%.
