Re: performance problems with drawers

Hi Al,

I think I have now been able to speed this up a lot.  There is
still a strange delay when you switch to CHILDREN view in
your Bookmark entry *for the first time*.  However, after that
things seem to be much faster.  I have no idea where this
initial delay comes from, it might have to do with the way
Emacs handles character properties internally.

Anyway, even the first time you use CHILDREN view is now much
faster than it used to be.

Please let me know if this solves the issue for you.

P.S.  Unfortunatey, I cannot fix the performance issues
regarding vertical cursor motion, this is in the guts of
Emacs.  `C-c C-f' and `C-c C-b' do help a bit...
