With emacs -Q things are twice better, though still not good enough:

org-ql might be one of the reasons of slowdown. Without it, the nm-tst
after clearing the cache is slightly faster (was 13 sec):

However, markers are also created by agendas for example. The last
result is also on fresh Emacs. Fresh Emacs tends to be faster in general.

Do you know a good way to find out all the markers associated with a buffer?

Some examples of autogenerated IDs using bibtex-autokey:
du-2021-recen-studies-in-mechan-proper-e4d
Youtube-veritasium-2021-you-cant-prove-every-thats-true-346
schuh-2005-quant-insig-into-disloc-nucleat-a1d
Karl-Voit-voit-2020-draft-workf-advan-projec-manag

You can judge for yourself if it is too long or not. Also, the length
can be customised as described in bibtex-generate-autokey docstring.

Best,
