How can I profile neovim plugins for a specific file?
You could use https://github.com/tweekmonster/startuptime.vim. Then you can run :StartupTime -- big-file.txt

Lua
tweekmonster/startuptime.vim is inaccurate. I think it doesn't take Lua into account. Don't use this plugin.

moonfly & nightfly colorschemes, now with faster startup
I recently had a look at startup performance. Using the startuptime plugin both moonfly & nightfly were taking around 4.5ms to load on my quad-core Linux desktop (not too bad for traditional Vimscript-based colorschemes). Some profiling did indicate that clearing highlights and resetting syntax are actually quite expensive. We really don't need to do either when loading a colorscheme at Vim start time; it is only really needed when changing colorschemes within an existing edit session. Putting in a simple guard results in moonfly & nightfly now taking only 2.5ms to startup (on my machine).

moonfly & nightfly colorschemes, now with expanded Neovim ecosystem support (and faster startup)
Lastly, I also had a look at startup performance. Using the startuptime plugin both moonfly & nightfly were taking around 4.5ms to load on my quad-core Linux desktop (not too bad for Vimscript-based colorschemes). Some profiling did indicate that clearing highlights and resetting syntax are actually quite expensive. We really don't need to do either when loading a colorscheme at Neovim start time; it is only really needed when changing colorschemes within an existing edit session. Putting in a simple guard results in moonfly & nightfly now taking only 2.5ms to startup (on my machine). That is quite similar to some of the nice new Lua-based Neovim colorschemes now available. A win, albeit a small one.
