I'll be searching for a csv table editor to replace emacs-orgmode.  I have 
concluded emacs-orgmode spreadsheet is unusable and the amount of data is 
at 400 records now and will grow.  I can export to my iPhone and use 
numbers sheets or excel in that environment to get the statistical 
calculations I need done.  A year ago, I thought since postgresql couldn't 
do population standard deviation calculations I'd be able to get that 
working with emacs-orgmode even if calc had to be used to get that done. 
I was wrong.
This sometimes doesn't mess up my notes when doing outlines and lists but 
is no longer suitable for math.

Would you have an ECM so we can inspect where the bottleneck is?

You should report a bug if Org messes up your notes.

Offtopic, but stddev_pop(expression), see 
www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/functions-aggregate.html
fifth from the bottom of the page.
