Ooh this is fun... :-)

   $ time emacs -Q -nw --eval '(info "(elisp)Index")' -kill
   real    0m23.042s
   user    0m22.609s
   sys     0m0.124s

   $ time emacs -Q -nw -kill
   real    0m1.088s
   user    0m0.792s
   sys     0m0.104s

   $ egrep -i "name|mhz" /proc/cpuinfo
   model name      : Pentium III (Katmai)
   cpu MHz         : 451.040

Do I win the prize for slowest?

BTW, even though the above time (22s) looks pretty slow, it didn't
really hit my "annoying" threshold -- I guess I'm just used to things
being a bit pokey on this machine....
