I don't know how computationally intensive OP's algo is, but I've found that in real world use cases Damerau–Levenshtein distance algo has slowed down a number of our jobs (and we aim to avoid it is possible).

Our jobs are real-time where the user is awaiting a response. So probably not limiting factor for jobs that can be run on your own time.
