Emacs Freezing With Java Files

Sorry if this sent twice, I wasn't on the mailing list and didn't find it in the archives (which update every 15 minutes?).

I have a few Java files that are about 500 lines of code and I can't move around in them much before Emacs freezes. I first thought it was java-lsp but it still happened after disabling and uninstalling it. I also uninstalled lsp-mode as well, but that didn't change anything.

I started doing CPU profiles of it and found that which-function-mode was taking up 67% of my CPU usage. While this is happening all I was doing was holding the down arrow until it froze about 350 lines in. Didn't press any other buttons.

So I disabled which-function-mode and moved around the buffer just fine! Though when trying to edit the file (just hit enter), it froze again. This time it seems like electric-indent-mode was taking up close to 50% of my CPU usage.

I disabled that and tried again and then it froze again with c-indent-line-or-region eating up 63% of my CPU when I use TAB.

While using debug-on-quit I get the below output. Any idea what's happening here and how it can be addressed? I tried large files of other types and it only seems to happen with Java files. I attached screenshots of the CPU profiler outputs for each of the three scenarios.

I thought about submitting a bug report but I can't figure out what is fundamentally the cause here. I do know though that if I launch emacs with the -Q argument, then there aren't any problems at all.

I am using emacs version 28.2 on EndeavorOS.
