Something is rotten in the tiledraw code. If too many things are on screen, it takes so long that the emulator itself starts to lag, even if the game isn't. I don't typically notice this in real time play unless I have TASEditor open, but even without TASEditor, it's pretty substantial if you try to fast forward--you can't even achieve double speed.
I initially blamed this on the excessive gui.pixel calls and tried to buffer draws into a string for gui.image, but it made no difference. Not only that, the graphics themselves were spectacularly wrong, so I scrapped that idea instead of trying to fix it.
I need to figure out if this can be fixed, or if gui.pixel was just not meant to be bashed this hard.
