I tangled it on my box like this: Start Emacs default emacs --no-init-file (emacs-version) "GNU Emacs 24.5.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin15.4.0, NS apple-appkit-1404.46) of 2016-06-08 on vela" (org-version) "8.2.10" In Emacs I evaluated (defmacro measure-time (&rest body) "Measure the time it takes to evaluate BODY." `(let ((time (current-time))) ,@body (message "%.06f" (float-time (time-since time))))) And timed and tangled it. It took approximately 8 minutes. When I tangle it using my config it takes approximately 11 seconds. I would start with a bisection of the file to try and narrow down when and where the slowdown occurs.
