This file has 52 lines, each line about 50,000 characters.  Very long
lines are known to slow down Emacs display.  There's a bug report
about this in the bug tracker, so hopefully someone will find a fix
for this.

Thanks for the data.  But in the future, please send it in private
email, there's no need to invade everyone's mailbox with such large
attachments.
