Here is a macro I use quite frequently, with a line like this:

# New Exception Call:       PD0TEST/J

The macro consists of:

- CTRL-A
- set mark
- CTRL-F until you get to the start of the field after Call:
- CTRL-W to delete the selected text
- CTRL-N to go to the start of the next line

After the macro is defined, there is a pause the next (first) time it's
used (C-x C-e).  It's speedy after that.

You mean 'C-x e', not 'C-x C-e', right?

I just inserted several lines like

# New Exception Call:       PD0TEST/J

into the *scratch* buffer and defined your keyboard macro. I didn't notice any delay the first time I ran it. Might there be some other conditions necessary to reproduce the problem? Is the mode of the buffer relevant? Can you reproduce the problem starting from 'emacs -Q'?
