Hi Carsten,
Thanks to the new variable org-agenda-entry-types, I have moved all my
appointments from emacs diary into org-mode. It is now quite fast to
pull up weekly and monthly calendars with a custom agenda command.
The missing piece of the puzzle is integration with "diary" and
"cal-tex" functions via the org-diary sexp. I have found org-diary to be
excruciatingly slow when called for anything more than a couple of days.
I have the following line in my diary file:
&%%(org-diary :timestamp :sexp)
If I try to view 20 or so upcoming days in the diary by typing C-u 20 d
on a date in the calendar, it can take upwards of 30 seconds to generate
the diary display. This is of little consequence, since I can, after
all, simply use the custom agenda command. But I often want to print out
a nice LaTeX calendar of my appointments with cal-tex-cursor-month. And
that takes upwards of 50 seconds (see attached elp-results file).
Judging from the elp-results, the culprit seems to be
org-prepare-agenda-buffers (46 seconds), which is called 31 times (once
for each day). It seems to me that since org-diary is being called 31
times in quick succession by the same function (diary-sexp-entry), one
should only need to call org-prepare-agenda-buffers once.
The only solution I could see to this problem was to add a test to see
if org-diary had been called less than 1 second ago. Thus, I added the
variable org-diary-last-run-time and a conditional in org-diary that
only runs org-prepare-agenda-buffers if org-diary-last-run-time is less
than 1 second in the past.
With the patch, it now takes appr. 5 seconds to generate the LaTeX
calendar with cal-tex and org-prepare-agenda-buffers is called only
once.

Thanks for looking at this. I'm eager to know if there is a more elegant
way of accomplishing the same thing.
