OK. If you experience it again, please do M-x org-element-cache-reset in the slow buffer and see if it is responsive again. Another interesting test would be to try reproducing the problem with `org-element-use-cache' set to nil. I'm not totally sure this is related to the cache, as killing the buffer should have solved the problem. Regards, -- Nicolas Goaziou
