If you could send me your biggest scoring file I could try and reproduce
it locally.

I understand it contains private information, so you might want to
"sanitize" it first e.g. by doing a search&replace such as

    C-u M-% ".+" RET "xxxx" RET

[ Maybe you'll need to tweak the regexp, e.g. if you have strings that
  contain the double quote character or that span more than one line.
  E.g. maybe search for \" before doing the above.  If you need more
  help with that, let me know.  ]

Indeed.

Yup, the underlying difference is that the new `pp-fill` uses
`lisp-indent-line` whereas the old code (`pp-28`) uses
`lisp-indent-region`.  In most cases, the algorithmic complexity of
calling `lisp-indent-line` on every line of a region should be the same
as that of `lisp-indent-region`, but sometimes performance bugs creep
in :-(
