1) Load a large file, that contains no newlines. I used a 100KB json
file from my Firefox profile (but loaded as a text file)
2) set visual-line-mode aka Word wrap
3) scroll up (<next> scroll-up-command)

The scrolling is very slow, and the further in the file you come, the
slower it becomes. During that time, Emacs consumes close to 100% CPU.
At a certain moment it took me half an our for one scroll operation.
When I went to the end of the buffer (M-> end-of-buffer), Emacs looped
virtually forever. I decided to kill it after 12 hours.

In another experiment, I repeatedly did a scroll-up-command, followed by
the shell command 'date >> display.log'. I repeated this with a keyboard
macro.
The written times indicate that in the beginning the time for a
scroll-up goes up linearly until more than a minute, and then Emacs get
stuck.
