BTW, I had done some simple performance measurements and hit some hiccups
previously. I just repeated them and I believe things are much improved:

org-notify-process                8           0.521915      0.065239375
org-notify-todo-list              8           0.512575      0.064071875
org-notify-make-todo              194         0.0485780000  0.0002504020

Another time

org-notify-process                11          1.6243200000  0.1476654545
org-notify-todo-list              11          1.516659      0.1378780909
org-notify-make-todo              596         0.2396870000  0.0004021593

and I've seen the avg time (last column) of org-notify-process go up to
0.22s, whereas before it used to be 5s or so, and even after the first
round of optimization that Peter did, it went down but still was over a
second (1.6s iirc). That caused significant hesitation when typing.

At this point,I do not notice any such hesitation - otoh, I'm sure I'm
not stressing it very much: that would require constructing a suitable
load generator, which I have not done.

But previously, things were bad enough that I had to turn off the notify
process. Now, I'm leaving it on and (mostly) not noticing that
it's there, so that's definitely progress.

Thanks Peter!
Nick
