Question: CPU usage in numerical integration

Leading on from this post I made before:

http://www.mapleprimes.com/questions/210359-Integrating-Very-Large-Sums

I have a script that can now integrate larger sums thanks to the tips I was given. I now have a question regarding cpu usage when the calculation is run through a loop. I have attached two files. One contains the sum (large_sum.txt) which is then read in to the main Maple script (large_sum_int.mw).

When the loop is run, the first few points are calculated quite consistently with very similar cpu times. However, as the calculation progresses the cpu time suddenly increases (with larger sums than the one given it is a very severe increase) it then decreases again and returns to the time it took for the initial points to be calculated.

Is there a reason there is a sticking point in this calculation? is there a more efficient way to simplify it before it reaches the integration stage? When using simplify(...,size) the initial block takes a very long time to execute hence is not included here. This is not the largest sum that needs to be processed so I am looking for means to speed up calculation time/make it more consistent.

Any help is appreciated
