bug#48871: 27.2; Unusably slow in C# mode

[jan]

Hi,
I don't recall installing c# but may well have happened.
>From package-list-packages:

csharp-mode        20210328.2004 installed             C# mode derived mode

Which does not say built-in so likely I did. Looking in the unzipped
emacs 27.2 , no relevant *sharp* file in it, and did find it in the
elpa directory, so I guess must have.

Started with -Q.  Did the M-x load-file for csharp-mode.el (FYI also
had to do load-file for csharp-compilation.el before that to make it
happy).

Finally got to load the C# file itself, exactly the same. No faster.

Troublesome C# file attached.

cheers

jan
