do you use the document's XTextViewCursor?  it could be faster to create
a new XTextCursor from the document and use that; it would avoid visibly
scrolling the document around at least, even without lockControllers.

you can create a new cursor with

 ThisComponent.getText().createTextCursor()

that said i wouldn't know how much of the slowdown is due to using the
view cursor instead of a plain text cursor, and how much is due to
re-layouting after every modification of the document, which can only be
avoided with lockControllers.
