On second thought, it's not quite so mysterious.

In my test, the first class is the one with the aggregation
diamonds, and in fact, LinePath::calculateHead() shows up
second in the profile. I think it's an expensive operation,
and it's getting called far too often. I will look into
a fix for this shortly.
