Load a (longer) latex file. Enable interactive mode in Auctex and compile the file. Initiating the compilation via the menu or via shortcut works fine, as expected. However, if the run is started via the toolbar icon, then the compilation may become very slow: in the window showing the progress of compilation, some lines appear, then the progress suddenly stops for some moment, the some progress is shown, then again there is break, and so on, so that, in effect, the compilation run may take more than five seconds, compared with 0.5 seconds if the run is initiated via shortcut or menu.
Actually, the problem has a machine specific aspect: it appears on my new retina macbook-pro, bot not on the ordinary desktop mac-pro which I have at work, both having the latest MacOS.
But the problem also has a GNU-Emacs-specific aspect, and in particular seems not to be an Auctex problem: The problem does not appear at all with Auctex and the Emacs Mac Port by Yamamoto Mitsuharu.

Can you try to:
- M-x profiler-start RET RET
- then reproduce the slow run
- M-x profiler-report RET
- on the first line of the profiler report hit C-u RET to reveal the
 whole tree.

(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately weren't resolved
at the time.)
Are you still seeing this issue in recent versions of Emacs/Macos?

More information was requested, but no response was given within a
month, so I'm closing this bug report. If the problem still exists,
please respond to this email and we'll reopen the bug report.
