Not as far as performance is concerned, no (to the best of my
knowledge).

That's very strange.  On my 3GHz box, the above takes 6 seconds in the
Windows port of the CVS Emacs.  What version of Emacs are you using
(what does "M-x emacs-version RET" display)?

> Am I having some config problems?

There's a problem, allright, but I'm unsure what kind, exactly.  When
you invoke "M-x texinfo-format-buffer", do you see in the echo area
messages like the following:
