Yes, with 1000 lines in a table, the re-aligning become slow.
I would think I have optimized the tables as much as I can, in the
way that the automatic re-align is called as little as
possible, but maybe there is something that still can be done.

To help youself with performance issues in large tables, here
are a few tips you can try.

- Realign only by hand, when you want.  You can do this by setting
   the variable org-table-automatic-realign to nil.  After that
   you need to press C-c C-c in a table to align it, but for simple
   editing of data fields and moving from one field to another, there
   should then be no noticable delay.

- Split the table into several tables.  Just inserting an empty line
   every 100 lines should do the trick.
