Public bug reported:

/proc/$pid/maps experienced a significant performance regression for
processes with large numbers of threads between Precise and Trusty due
to an upstream bug. This behavior is currently blocking my ability to
upgrade to Trusty, as we depend on applications with with 10s of
thousands of threads.

The issue has been fixed in the usptream -mm tree.
