PAL has several stages: 1. extraction of label candidates of features 2. evaluation of cost of each candidate 3. solution of the conflicts. IIRC the slowness is caused by evaluations of cost, especially polygons need quite complex computation. This could be approached with a smarter evaluation that does not do so many operations. What I mean here is that the library itself is quite fast, just one piece causes the slowness.
