I'm not sure what would cause Attach to be slow as I also haven't encountered that, though I don't know that I've really tracked it or paid close attention to that. But the subsequent attaches being fast may be that the object is still attached so it is going over the Attach page logic (if it's referenced as a subpage) but it is only checking and finding that it's already attached. Could that be the case?
