I cannot reproduce your problem with GNU Emacs 24.0.94.1
(x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.24.9) of 2012-03-01.

~$ time emacs -q -nw -f "save-buffers-kill-terminal"

real    0m0.053s
user    0m0.032s
sys     0m0.020s

~$ time emacs -q -nw -l /tmp/jreeseue.el -f "save-buffers-kill-terminal"

real    0m0.058s
user    0m0.040s
sys     0m0.016s

BTW. add-hook is a regular function and (and 'tex-mode-hook 'text-mode-hook) 
evaluates to 'text-mode-hook!
