Yeah, it's weird since all I'm doing when collecting perf data is 
zooming and panning the pcb, (with eeschema open).  A root page and 11 
sub pages at the next level. Roughly 800 components and 2000 wires.

Probably something somewhere is instantiating a new SCH_SHEET_LIST 
(which then has to chew through each and every schematic item to find 
the sheets) on every event?
