Hi Telesto and Dieter,

Here is a patch for testing. Let me know if it improves speed of inserting large tables with an auto format table style for you. For a 20 column 800 row table with various auto format table styles my testing shows between 4 and 5 seconds with the patch applied vs between 23 and 27 seconds without. I think that says something about my computer ;-) Maybe it will be less than one second for yours.

@Buovjaga
-> in the mood to test this.. assuming it exists on Linux too.. I'm lacking a build environment

@Jim
Reset assured ;-).. Looking at the CPU graph on my system (20 seconds) .. 23 seconds isn't that bad.. And the single core performance isn't increasing much as far I know.. 

Anyway thanks for the effort!

I confirm the delay is gone with this patch.
