We never announced that all possible problems in such buffers would be 
solved.  In fact, the NEWS entry explicitly mentions that slowdowns are 
still possible because of minor or major modes, and contains instructions 
to gradually disable minor and major modes when such problems happen.

My preference is still to remove that feature.

I'll do that in less than a week, after hearing your final verdict, if you 
decide that it should not be removed.
