So-- are you adding and removing tons of DOM elements?   If so, you
might consider using innerHTML on chunks, or you might consider
building a replacement menu and then swapping it in when done building
it.

And yes, you can add and remove style elements, which I think would be
efficient in this context.

Have you tried testing to see which part of your script is taking the time?
