Try to close SPD and clear its cahce before adding. The cache is located here:
%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Web Server Extensions\Cache
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WebsiteCache
UPDATE1: It has become much clear after comments.
The cause of your issue is the fact that you added fields to a list, but not to content type. As your workflow is reusable it only ...

Just a small, but very important addition not related directly to your question (as it was already answered by Thantos).
There is an error in your code. You should never dispose SPWeb object obtained from SPContext.Current.Web (you don't need the using operator).
Here is an article about it: Disposing Objects

If you have already setup the approval workflow for the wiki site then you should make sure to enable the Content Approval for your wiki site. By default this is turned off and as such users with read access will see everything even if the items are still in draft phase. So what you need to do is enable content approval first and in the content approval ...

Running something five time as often will off course have impact on the performance.
But it is only by measuring the performance prior to,and after, a change in the interval that you will now how much and in what ways. Because how your specific SharePoint installation is what really matters, therefor there is no single answer like "Yes by so and much".

From your warnings it seems like the feature manifest is corrupt. An easy fix should be to recreate the feature and readd your project items to it.
Also there is a warning about using different version of an assembly. Make sure ...

I finally found the answer.
It turns out, workflow not recognizing "Start Time" is a common problem! All we need is a workaround.
For reusable, content type-specific workflow, we can solve this problem by the following.
Create a new column in the content type (Event or your own new content type) of type "Calculated from other columns" (I was using ...

The workflow was up to almost 1GB before we were able to stop it. Microsoft was never able to find the issue but we had to remove all traces of the workflow before the problem fully went away. The performance ...
