XeLaTeX compiles too slow

You already load auto-pst-pdf which is not needed by xelatex. But you can run it with pdflatex if you use the postscript environment. For example:

\section{Full house}
Three of a kind with a pair.
\begin{center}
\begin{postscript}
    \crdtens
    \crdtenh
    \crdtend
    \crdnines
    \crdnined
\end{postscript}
\end{center}

Then pdflatex needs only a few seconds
