As a general rule, try to avoid regular expressions which
nest multiple instances of "+" and "*". They tend to take
very long to apply.
Note, BTW, that the grouping and the trailing + are not
needed in this case (mutt does something which has the
effect you intend to achieve with hthis), so you may wish
to try this one instead:
color body brightyellow default "[-A-Z'][-A-Z'][-A-Z']*[ ,]*"
It should work considerably faster.
