I don't see anything suspicious in these headers.  If you still have the old
version of the folder, please try profiling.  Here are some quick notes on
how to do profiling. (More details in the elp.el library file - part of
Emacs distribution.)

* Profiling - elp
  - M-x elp-instrument-package RET vm RET should instrument the whole
    package.  (M-x elp-instrument-function and M-x elp-instrument-list or
    other ways to set profiling.)
  - M-x elp-set-master sets a "master" function, whose execution is profiled
    and nothing else.  M-x elp-unset-master cancels the master function.
  - M-x elp-results shows the results.
  - M-x elp-reset-all to reset the profiling data
  - M-x elp-restore-all to remove all profiling.

Cheers,
