It is strange. Merely 3500 markers created by org-refile-cache in 2.2Mb 
file ruin performance of regexps in that buffer. I would expect either 
no influence of markers at all since search is a read-only operation or 
some negligible penalty proportional to fraction of markers in relation 
to total amount of characters.

Look at the numbers for nm-test that is just some regexp searches from 
`org-buffer-property-keys'. Performance is restored after clearing of 
the cache.

#+begin_src elisp
   (defun nm-tst ()
     (org-with-wide-buffer
      (goto-char (point-min))
      (while (re-search-forward org-property-start-re nil t)
        (org-get-property-block)
        (outline-next-heading))
      nil))

   (org-refile-cache-clear)

   (let ((org-refile-targets '((nil :maxlevel . 6)))
	(org-refile-use-outline-path 'file)
	(org-refile-use-cache t)
	(iters 10))
     (cons
      (list (org-version))
      (mapcar (lambda (f)
	       (append (list f) (benchmark-run iters (funcall f))))
	     (list #'nm-tst ; #'org-buffer-property-keys
		   #'org-refile-get-targets
		   #'nm-tst ; #'org-buffer-property-keys
		   #'org-refile-cache-clear
		   #'nm-tst))))
#+end_src

#+RESULTS:

It seems, it is better to drop org-refile-cache completely. It has some 
design problems making it rather fragile. At the same time a patch can 
be applied that improves performance of `org-refile-get-targets' by a 
factor of at least 2 for (org-refile-use-outline-path 'file).
