org-mode 7.8.03
emacs 23.3, 23.4, 24.0.94

steps to recreate:

emacs -q

copy the following code and paste it into the *scratch* buffer:
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.txt\\'" . org-mode))
(add-hook 'org-mode-hook '(lambda () (text-scale-set 4)))

M-x eval-buffer

then C-x C-f to open a .txt file, and then C-x C-f to open another .txt
file.
Every time a .txt is opened, the font size become larger and larger.
However, the indicator in the mode line remains +4.

I can confirm this behaviour but I don't think this is an error. The
description of `text-scale-set' reads:

C-h f text-scale-set RET

,----
| text-scale-set is an interactive autoloaded Lisp function in
| `face-remap.el'.
| 
| (text-scale-set LEVEL)
| 
| Set the scale factor of the default face in the current buffer to LEVEL.
| If LEVEL is non-zero, `text-scale-mode' is enabled, otherwise it is disabled.
| 
| LEVEL is a number of steps, with 0 representing the default size.
| Each step scales the height of the default face by the variable
|           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
| `text-scale-mode-step' (a negative number decreases the height by
| the same amount).
`----

The first time `org-mode-hook' is run the height of default font is
scaled by 4 levels, i.e. the height of default font is set to a new
value. The second time `org-mode-hook' is run the height is scaled
again, this time based on the new value. And so on.

If you want to set the face height you might use:

(set-face-attribute 'default nil :height 100)

Here `100' means 100% of the font size in pt (afaik).

text-mode-hook and c-mode-hook do NOT have this bug.
and the org-mode-hook of orgmode shipped within emacs 23.3 does NOT have
this bug.

This is now fixed, thanks.

The problem was that Org relied on `face-remapping-alist' to 
remap the 'default face to the 'org-default face.  Relying on 
this mechanism produces the error you reported, because the 
text-scale-set doesn't interact well with remapped faces.

I'm now relying on `buffer-face-mode' which seems to be a 
cleaner approach.

Best,

On my machine, this change causes a noticeable lag when typing in
org-mode buffers. The cursor hesitates for a bit and then lurches
forward. If I turn off buffer-face-mode the lag disappears. I'm still
figuring out how to diagnose the problem.

Best,
Matt

Another question: is it customary for major modes to invoke
buffer-face-mode? I was a bit confused when I first saw "BufFace" in the
mode-line, as I had not explicitly invoked the minor mode. My
understanding was that this was primarily intended as a minor mode for
user-level modifications, not for major modes to rely on (but I may very
well be mistaken).

Best,
Matt

Let us know about this.  If this change triggers such problems for
several users, maybe we should just make `buffer-face-mode' optional.

I don't know, I've asked the emacs-devel@ mailing list.

Emacs devs said using buffer-face-mode is "obnoxious".  So I
buffer-face-mode is not turned on by default anymore.  org-default is
still the face for buffer-face-mode, though.
