Slowliness often comes from using many text overlays, which are used fondamentally by outline-mode, the mode org-mode is derived from. Turning off font-lock will not do anything about the problem you're reporting. Please bear with us and Emacs developers while we are improving things is this area, this is quite a common request and should be a priority. Best, -- Bastien
