I had a quick look at the contacts.cfg file, and it shows me a possible source of the problem: large amount of host groups (163) and service groups (143) associated with various contacts. I have many groups that are eg about Servers, but for every site I create a separate group. So I have 9 hostgroups for Servers, 9 for Switches, etc.

Stepping back a bit, why are there so many host groups and service groups?

Well, I have different sites, but they have local administrators. So I need to have a good separation in the hosts and services for every site. That’s why I have so many groups. Every site thus has a full hierarchy tree, but this means I have to maintain several of these trees here on the top. A nice feature would be to have another property on each host: site or company. And the option to link this to a user. Would make it much easier for me J

What would "site" property look like? Does site == slave?

Currently, role selection is via host group in hierarchy UNION slave selection. Would UNION keyword selection help (could then have a keyword = services on a site)?

Does this take > 6 minutes?

Nope:

nag...@node5:~$ time /usr/local/nagios/bin/rc.opsview check
Checking configuration for /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg... okay

real    2m16.410s
user    2m11.240s
sys     0m1.090s

Just to let you know that I've reproduced the problem and Nagios stalls in the conf.d directory. Must be a bug somewhere in Nagios for reading subdirectories. Haven't had a chance to look at this yet, but will try and get this into 3.7.1.
