Done.  See attached

According to my profiler, I think it's using 30% of the CPU time during
my custom org-clock-sum just to get ITEM.  I suppose it's because it
thinks it has to grab and cache everything when all I'm after is ITEM.
I don't see anything else that looks suspicious in the profiler so I
suspect you're seeing a much worse case then I am.  I'll copy paste my
previous performance numbers here again just so you can see my slowdown
is only between 1.5x and 3x.

Subject: [PATCH] Obsolete `org-cached-entry-get' in favor of `org-entry-get'

We have a better performing cache mechanism in `org-entry-get'.

* lisp/org.el (org-make-tags-matcher): Replace uses of
`org-cached-entry-get' with `org-entry-get'.
(org-cached-entry-get): Move to ...
* lisp/org-compat.el (org-cached-entry-get): ... here.  Obsolete in
favor of `org-entry-get'.
