As someone else suggested, starting with a clean Emacs configuration and adding packages one-by-one will probably reveal the problem. I'm guessing that running "emacs -Q" won't have the speed problem, because the file size you mentioned isn't too large for Org to handle well.
I remember talking to someone on /r/emacs about an org-mode speed problem with large files, and he solved the problem by disabling a package or setting that was behaving badly. Let us know what you find! :)
