There is definitely a bug here, which I have just filed.

I see that your delta queue is only 160-odd commits but the changes
since last anchor are more.  It is indeed very slow.

git-debrebase -i is particularly bad.  It can easily be made as fast
as git-debrebase status.

git-debrebase status could do with improvement too.
