No, the main source of consing, according to the memory profiler, is
`inhibit-local-variables-p':

    170,592,016  49% + inhibit-local-variables-p
     45,619,488  13% + string-match
     28,171,152   8% + insert-file-contents
     26,066,069   7% + file-name-sans-versions
     18,699,245   5% + file-remote-p

The full memory profile is attached.
