I concur that the current C mode is much slower than it was several
releases ago.  My personal subjective impression is that it gets
slower with every new release, and I suspect that the main reason is
our desire to support more and more C quirks and subtleties.  If this
is true, I'd be glad to go back to a simpler C mode, which sometimes
mis-fontified or even (gasp!) mis-indented an occasional rare
construct, but to get back the speed we enjoyed in the past.
