Earlier today I attempted to send the following.

Hi Charles
First I would like to point out that to my understanding there are now
two separate issues in discussion in this thread which are easy to mix
up:
1) The same table calculates fast or slow depending on the position
within the same entry, see OP.
I did not understand; I thought that the speed slowed down as the OP
progressed from table to table in the file.
2) An entry with nothing but a single table, as you describe it:
True; I did not bother to mention other files in which I had multiple
tables, some with references to other tables in the file. At times
"M-x org-table-iterate-buffer-tables" seemed to take eternity,
squared. (Imagine a smiley face placed here.)

I learned that the hard way when I had one table - four columns, three
simple addition formulas with about 1,000 entries. It seemed an
eternity
before the addition was completed.
Only out of curiosity I would like to see the TBLFM. And do you see
still the same slowness with 8.3beta?
It has been quite a while and I suspect that my experience may have
been with org <8.0. I try to find the older files, give them a run and
let you know. I will also give org another shot using multiple
tables, as spreadsheets, in one file. The worst that can happen is
that I will have to export the tables.
