The performance I was referring to last week was indeed in an emacs that had been running for quite some time. I did close down that emacs instance on Friday for unrelated reasons and the instance this morning had only been running for minutes. Maybe the problem is not org alone but relates to emacs as well. > If I remember correctly I asked the list for advise. But it looked like > one of these problems only I have ;).

To clarify, when I said I wasn't using the latest version of org, it's that I hadn't updated from git in a few weeks but I am using a snapshot of emacs tracking the development version (and now I have org up to date). -- : Eric S Fraga (0xFFFCF67D), Emacs 25.1.50.1, Org release_8.3.6-1149-g582233
