Is generating public key x point from private key more costly than the euclidean inversion used in this type of point addition ?
Yes. Elliptic curve multiplication is generally considered more computationally expensive than any point addition, because it involves lots of double-and-add operations.

It seems to take absolutely forever compare to the multiplication.
Unless I misunderstood the question, neither the former nor the latter is very complex.
