Probably the polygon clipper code.  After the initial loading is it 
faster to zoom and pan?

Makes me wonder if polygons in pcb need to have a "poured/unpoured" 
state.  In the unpoured state it would be like it wasn't there except 
the outline would remain.  In the poured state, it would be there along 
with all clearances, thermals, etc.
