The obvious bits you tried are pretty quick, so I'll guess you need to
break out the profiler. It is easy to do as there is a handy wrapper
for it.
Use:
M-x semantic-elp-<TAB>
and there are a few options. Usually, the 'analyze' version will do
what you want.
Just put the cursor someplace 'slow', and run the command. Save your
profile to disk. Browse in the data-debugger.
There may be a simple 'aha!' or not. You can email the results to the
list if you don't see anything for analysis by others.
You might need to restart your Emacs to remove the profiling
instrumentation elp leaves behind.
