hi everybody,

I have a table with 15 columns and 500 rows. One of the columns is a
URL.

org-mode is hanging while exporting the table. It does not seem to
crash, but it is taking a significant amount of time. The worst part is
that it does not appear to be linear.

80 rows -> 17 seconds
160 rows (same 80 rows duplicated) -> 58 seconds

160 rows, 8 columns -> 21 seconds (it seems to not matter which columns
there are).

I wonder if this is expected behaviour. Given that org does not sort the
tables, why does the time increase non-linearly to the size of the
table?

If interested, I can make the table available.

thanks a lot!

--daniel
