`mode-line-format' contains per default `mode-line-remote', introduced a couple of weeks ago. Evaluating this variable calls `file-remote-p'. I guess this is the reason of the observed behaviour. As you said, it shouldn't be a performance bottleneck, because `file-remote-p' doesn't connect a remote machine ever. As far as I see in the code, `expand-file-name' doesn't call `file-remote-p'.
