This is a known inefficiency with Cairo's implementation of affine
transforms. AFAICT, Cairo performs the transform on the CPU, which is
aggravated by uploading the complete bitmap to the X server every time
the image is displayed.
Building without Cairo should induce Emacs to utilize XRender transforms
instead, ameliorating this problem.
