Ugh, actually I can't reproduce this anymore in emacs -Q, sorry for
the noise. I definitely see it in my own config -- as I remove org
related packages and configuration things speed up, but I've got to do
more work to narrow it down further to exactly what it is. Removing
all of my org related configuration dropped me from 7.57s to 5.3s in
the xdisp.c test... which obviously isn't an org file, so something
odd is still going on.
