I didn't have a chance to look over you code samples but shallow /
inspecific selectors can run slower than more specific selectors
So
li * {styles here}
will run slower than
li span,
li a,
li em {styles here}
At least that is the case with IE but its always special like that.
Perhaps dreamweaver is equally special
