Good day,

I have measured a massive slow down for emacs24 on windows. I struggled
while using org-mode columnview, which takes for a short table several
minutes compared to a second with an older versino of emacs.

I tried to dig it down:

Running on an Core I7 Laptop with Windows 7/64 bit,
starting "emacs -q"

I got the  following times (elp measurement) for the org-mode function
org-goto-line:

Emacs 24.3.1 is ok, on Emacs 24.3.50 (I tested
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/3pgcb3iiy8s9irl/77pwM1O-5K/emacs-20140217-r116465-bin-i386.zip
) got a slow down of factor 10!!

Problem seemss to be forward-line.

Tested with following test case:

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(defsubst my-org-goto-line (N)
  (save-restriction
    (widen)
    (goto-char (point-min))
    (forward-line (1- N))))

(defun test-org-goto-line ()
  (with-temp-buffer
    (open-line 10000)
    (goto-char (point-min))
    (narrow-to-region (point-min) (point-max))
    (dotimes (i 10000)
      (my-org-goto-line i)
      )
    )
  )

(defun test-forward-line (with-narrow)
  (with-temp-buffer
    (open-line 10000)
    (goto-char (point-min))
    (if with-narrow
        (narrow-to-region (point-min) (point-max)))
    (dotimes (i 10000)
      (forward-line 1)
      )
    )
  )

(defvar test-buffer nil)
(defun test-performance/org-goto-line ()
  (interactive)
  (elp-instrument-list '(test-org-goto-line forward-line goto-char widen))
  (test-org-goto-line)
  (let ((elp-recycle-buffers-p nil)
        rc)
    (elp-results)
    (setq rc (buffer-string))
    (kill-buffer)
    (with-current-buffer test-buffer
      (insert "org-goto-line ("
              emacs-version
              ")\n")
      (insert rc "\n"))
    )
  (elp-restore-all)
)

(defun test-performance/forward-line (with-narrow)
  (interactive)
  (elp-instrument-list '(test-forward-line forward-line goto-char widen))
  (test-forward-line with-narrow)
  (let ((elp-recycle-buffers-p nil)
        rc)
    (elp-results)
    (setq rc (buffer-string))
    (kill-buffer)
    (with-current-buffer test-buffer
      (insert (format "org-forward-line %s (" (if with-narrow "with narrow" 
"without narrow"))
              emacs-version
              ")\n")
      (insert rc "\n")))
  (elp-restore-all)
)

(defun test-performance ()
  (interactive)
  (setq test-buffer (generate-new-buffer "*Performance*"))
  (test-performance/org-goto-line)
  (test-performance/forward-line t)
  (test-performance/forward-line nil)
  (pop-to-buffer test-buffer))
#+END:

With kind regards,

Stefan-W. Hahn                          It is easy to make things.
                                        It is hard to make things simple.

No further comments, so I'm closing this bug, as I see no further
place for improving the performance of the cache.
