When opening a .diff file, GNU Emacs runs "diff -ad" on 2 files it has built (I suppose that the reason is to get a word diff), and this can be very slow
That's inherent to the algorithm, no? I don't know of any faster algorithm, if you really want minimal output. If you know of one, please let us know.
A simple workaround would be for GNU Emacs to not use the -d (--minimal) option.
