The autocollection may be very slow, especially if your disk is slow (e.g.
NFS mounted) or if you have a lot of addresses in your address book. Please
try disabling it ("Addresses" page of the preferences dialog) and see if it
was indeed the culprit.

No, it's purely local -- but due to very inefficient address book format
(to be fair, it was never meant to hold many addresses) it can still be
slow.

I can't explain this :-(

If you have top, could you look at:
1. how much CPU time does M take during this delay?
2. if its working set is stable or continues to grow?
Thanks!
