I am facing "weird" things as well. Mainly performance drop when
doing (very) simple things like adding | in front of a table line,
changing to the next table column, marking tasks as DONE, archiving
tasks, and so on.

I have no idea how to debug those issues since the profiler-report
does not seem to look strange.

This is why I asked here for an Org-mode syntax checker a couple of
days ago. There does not seem to exist such a thing.

I am afraid, that I have to do the painful task of commenting out
separate sections of my Org-mode configuration (2000 lines) and
check whether or not the behavior changes.
