Looks like it may be the culprit. Could you try and take a look at those overlays to see what they look like? If you just (pp (save-restriction (widen) (overlays-in (point-min) (point-max))) (get-buffer-create "*overlays*")) and then look at the *overlays* buffer, you should be able to see the start/end points of those overlays, so you can at least see if they're empty. You maybe also want to check whether some/many of them seem to be piled up one of top of the other. Further than that you'll have to use `overlay-properties' on some of those overlays to get an idea of where they come from and what they're supposed to do.
