I have the same problem with the TAP plugins ad some other users have
reported too. It doesn't seem to be a problem with denormals since CPU
use remains low.

Have you noticed a heavy CPU load? In this case this is a well known
(but unsolved) problem. Some plugins (TAP for sure) use some
instruction that cause abnormal CPU load on moder PC.
