Emacs gets arbitrarily slow over time. I was able to narrow down the
problem to `pos-visible-in-window-p', which is, unfortunately, called as
part of lots of common commands. That function call is getting slower
each time it is called, if two conditions are met.

The first condition I was able to pin is the value of
`header-line-format'. The bug only occurs when it includes an image (as
is common when using tabbar.el).

It also depends on buffer contents, although I was not able to determine
a minimal condition. It happens with the fancy splash screen, but not
with the scratch buffer. I've tried inserting an image and using face
`variable-pitch', but those two aren't enough to trigger the bug.

This code sample demonstrates the bug. Run it in an "emacs -Q" instance
via `eval-buffer' and be amazed at the unbounded (linear) growth of
execution time for each iteration:

(defun bug ()
  "trigger bug related to pos-visible-in-window-p"
  (interactive)
  (benchmark 1000 '(pos-visible-in-window-p t)))

(fancy-startup-screen)
(setq header-line-format '((#("x" 0 1 (display (image :type pbm :data "P2 1 1 255\n"))))))
(goto-char (point-min))
(while t (bug))
