Mark, isn't this a dupe of a bug you were working on?

It is a bit hard to say without profiling it. Though it is probably most likely related to bug 1376149. Parts of bug 1392533 might help this as well, but it is a bit hard to say without digging more.

There isnt a lot of detail in this bug and it looks like it will have been fixed by the large amount of improvements into the performance of deleting from history so closing as a dupe
