Do you also see that Emacs 23 is significantly faster?

Also, were v24.5 and the current master compiled with the same
compilation options, and similar to Emacs 23?

Thanks.  I reviewed all the functions that are high on the profile
(term-goto seems to be the main culprit), and didn't see any
significant changes in them since Emacs 23.  Some of them were not
changed at all.  So I'm puzzled how can Emacs 24 and Emacs 25 be
significantly slower only in term.el.  Ideas and suggestions are
welcome.
