Not much of a help, just a couple of pointers:
I just opened a patch with several jmmmp/multiarray and help patches of
several of my jmmmp objects using data structures, and didn't notice
something like that.
But, I always use $0-names for templates. I would think having less
scalars for the same template would not affect existing scalars of a
given template.
Is your test patch anywhere ready to test? (preferably not "go here to
download the whole library, then go there and do this, ect.")
The delay on other gui objects is normal, is just pd overloading the
system with anything gui-related.
It seems to me that gui peformance has gotten worse in 0.53.1, but I
haven't been using Pd enough to pinpoint it. If affects mostly GOP and
loading/closing speeds, maybe not related with this.

Sometimes when I load certain patches containing data structures, all
data structures in all patches of an instance of Pd are redrawn.
As a follow-up on the matter, I identified to conditions that trigger a
redraw:
* Loading a patch where some scalar objects like [draw{symbol,number,text}]
or [{draw,filled}{curve,polygon}] are created before the [struct] oject
of the template
* Loading a patch where the [struct] uses a template name containing $0
like $0.fruit (!).
$0 seems to be treated specially, since using $1, $2, etc. is not
affected. Also, it doesn't help to put [struct $1 float x] into an
abstraction [mystruct $0.fruit].
Interestingly, if I load the patch without the [struct] object first,
and then create [sruct $0.fruit float x] manually, it doesn't trigger
the redraw. I'll try if I can work-around unwanted (and probably
unnecessary) redraws by dynamically creating [struct] objects instead
of loading them with the patch (as I cannot abstain from using $0).
Anyway, I hoped I could to get some insight in the matter first, but I
am more and more getting a sense that this deserves to be reported as
an issue.
