A monthly view does indeed take a long time to appear. Skip functions
are very useful but, alas, not particularly efficient. This command
first considers all entries (SCHEDULED, DEADLINE, timestamp) that fall
within the next 28 days and then selects only those entries with the
keyword APPT.
Might I ask whether your appointments are all timestamps or diary sexps
(as opposed to SCHEDULED or DEADLINE entries)? If so, adding the
following setting to the command may speed things up a bit:
(org-agenda-entry-types '(:timestamp :sexp))
Best,
Matt
