Description
Reported in the forum here: http://cesiumjs.org/forum.html#!msg/cesium-dev/C_OT9kB9RV8/-zlIMRjWCAAJ
Zooming is slower when the camera is close-ish to a model. Possibly not the proximity to the model, but the fact that the model is "in the center" of the view.

if you change the value of `latOffset`in `getPositionCentered()` you will notice the difference.

Research direction
Start with the linked Cesium Sandcastle Hello World example and reproduce the slowdown while zooming near the model. Compare behavior after changing latOffset in getPositionCentered(), then trace the camera zoom path to identify the performance difference. Done means zooming remains responsive in the reported near-model and centered-model cases.
