It was a bit tricky to untar it because even though it has a .bz2
extension it is not compressed.

Anyway, activating the Imenu facilities as shown in your .emacs file
(setting `imenu-auto-rescan' and `imenu-auto-rescan-maxout' as well as
adding the Imenu menu) and typing a character at the end of the sample
file I got the following results:

`LaTeX-imenu-create-index-function' searches from the bottom of the
buffer all the way up to its top with `re-search-backward' in order to
find LaTeX sectioning commands for the index.  This can obviously take
some time in large files.

I haven't tested with another version of Emacs and so I have no idea if
the the change in Emacs you mentioned affected the performance of
`re-search-backward' or if something else caused the slowdown in your
case.
