Created attachment 93940 [details] nps snapshot
The latest snapshot 377342 spends 4s in loading a font. Snapshot 335053 is corrupted and snapshots 302511 and 290033 spends time in native methods that calculates the font. It looks like there are just too many characters to process - too many calls to FontDesignMetrics.charsWidth(). Unfortunately the number of invocations is wrong - definitely not "1". getTabbedTextWidth() seems to be called with too long segment of text.
No more reports in NB7.0 or later. We have no plans to fix this in the near future. Patches are welcome.
