The support for vector file formats via OGR was experimental in version
3.4 and even though I never noticed this kind of performance issues it
may well have had some problems with some types of polygons.  This OGR
support is being completely rewritten for version 3.5 which should be
available in the next few weeks, so I suggest that you wait for version
3.5 and try it with your data, and if you still notice those issues then
please let us know.

BTW, which file format is your data in?  Can you verify that the
polygons are properly closed in your source data?

  Don't put for tomorrow what you can do today, because if 
      you enjoy it today you can do it again tomorrow.
