As this is mainly the server time I did run freeciv in autogame to produce 
some date. But you are right - it is quit slow ...

I think in a memory-intensive program like freeciv you might get more
accurate profiling data with something like oprofile with a sampling
rate low enough not to disturb the CPU's cache too much.

IIRC when I last did an oprofile on my PC (an old one!) something like
1/3 of client time was spent just picking the next unit to focus.  I
never got around to investigating the AI's cycle footprint.

Good ;-) But saving is another problem; see my comment to patch #1728.
Perhaps you could solve the problems with saving/loading the new player data.
I had to revert the patch.

It is at the smallest possible size (IMHO on pixel for each tile). So another
solution is needed.

That's the real problem. You could try to compile using '--enable-gprof' to
get profiling data (see patch #1707). I do not know how to fix this ...

Follow-up Comment #1, patch #1733 (project freeciv):

I have quickly tested this patch. Thanks for making this change so quickly.
Here's my feedback:

- The largest possible map size works great in single-player mode.
- The overview map should probably be clipped or scaled to fit large maps.
- When playing with a lot of AI players with the largest map size, ending a
turn takes quite a lot of time.
