I just hold down ‘w’ and let it auto-repeat.  Did you try that?

I ran with emacs -Q and load evil manually, with the same result
(Fundamental mode).  It’s not an old machine either (but I don’t think
that’s relevant, as this command shouldn’t be slow on any sort of
machine).

I’ll investigate further to see if I can figure something out.
