I've been running the tests with a pre-release version of MIT/GNU 
Scheme. But I re-ran them with 11.2 and it had the same behavior as the 
pre-release.

I'm running Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, and I built 28.2 and 29.1 from source (I 
don't usually use the Emacs that comes with the distro). I've also seen 
the slowdown on my laptop with Debian 12, though I haven't done as much 
testing there.

I have an old laptop running macOS; I can try that too.

One other thing comes to mind: is it possible that this is a problem 
with native compilation? I built both 28.2 and 29.1 to use native 
compilation. Did anything relevant change in 29.1?
