[ Right, but the issue was with the profiler info. ]

I think I can explain to you why it's going slow:
> (re-search-backward (concat "INSERT INTO `test1`.+"
> "VALUES ("
> item
> ","))
The ".+" will first match the whole long rest of the line, after which
the regexp matcher will try to match "VALUES (item,", which will fail,
so the matcher will go back trying with .+ matching one char less, and
try to match "VALUES (item," again, etc for every char on the long line.
You can speed it up significantly by tightening the regexp,
e.g. replacing .+ with [\s\t]+. It's still not superfast because our
regexp engine is not tuned for that kind of situation, but it's better.
> And the example file to run it on is attached. (anonymized sql dump)
And the real problem (the one for which I wanted the bug report) is that
the profiler indeed gives a bogus profile (see below) where
`re-search-backwards` doesn't appear at all and all the time is
attributed to `save-excursion` instead.
