Looks like 129 times from the results below.

Are you leaning on the "n" key? It's probably better to press it a given
number of times instead. Or is it the case that the delay you and Rainer
see *only* exhibits itself on auto-repeat? If the latter, then it might
very well be the case that X is the culprit (or the emacs display engine
or who knows what else).
The org-agenda-next-line time per call is about 4x what I get on my
system (where I have not seen the problem), so I assume that you will
also probably get the 50x (or so) slowdown on your office system that
Rainer got.

Actually, I'm not sure it has anything to do with font-lock: I got some
font-lock results in my initial profile (for unknown reasons - I hadn't
added font-lock to the elp list afaik, but I may have done something
stupid), and Manuel Hermenegildo chimed in with a problem that he has
had for a while: there is a suspected font-lock connection there and
Manuel posted a workaround for this problem[fn:1], but afaik this
problem is not related to that one.
The main thing to check in this problem case is whether the time that
org-agenda-next-line takes is roughly the same as the time that
next-line itself takes. There is somewhat indirect evidence that that is
the case, but we need to make sure. I asked Rainer to add next-line to
the elp list with M-x elp-instrument-function <RET> next-line <RET>, but
I haven't heard any results yet.
Thanks,
Nick
Footnotes:
[fn:1] I don't remember who posted the workaround originally and haven't
gone back to check.
