Input event is fired after timeout, and will fire only once if you do several changes quickly. if you use change event you can do

var ignore, changed
editor.on('input', function() { // async and batched
    if (changed) console.log(e);
    changed = false
});
editor.on('change', function() { // sync for each change
    if (!ignore) changed = true
});
ignore = true
editor.getSession().setValue('value');
ignore = false
