No, that's probably not a network problem! The user and system times are as short as one would assume. The issue is with the real time used, from pressing RET until some text appeared on screen. This time is 1 sec too long, i.e., by a factor of 70.
Could be you're missing some GB of RAM and your Mac is constantly swapping. Little tools like MenuMeters or iStat menus could display in the menu bar what's going on. In /private/var/vm the system stores the swap files. An easy check is to reboot your Mac, not opening any unnecessary applications, and then launching GNU Emacs.
Launching GNU Emacs your way is not the correct way. Check fast with 'emacs --help'! Instead of
emacs .emacs -f "save-buffers-kill-terminal"
you could use
emacs -q -l <some file with ELisp code> -f "save-buffers-kill-terminal"
or
emacs -Q -l <some file with ELisp code> -f "save-buffers-kill-terminal"
