After further investigation I found that it was not the problem with
source block regexp. The code was doing an extra backward regexp search
to find current headline. When there are no headlines in the Org file,
that search created quadratic scaling.
After caching the backwards search, the performance is further improved:
| N blocks | runtime | # of GCs |
|----------+---------+----------|
| 10 | 0.204 | 0 |
| 20 | 0.047 | 0 |
| 40 | 0.171 | 0 |

| 20480 | 5.633 | 0 |
| 40960 | 11.415 | 0 |
41k blocks in 12sec.
Graphical comparison:
The scaling becomes strictly linear after this fix:
Best,
