To give you sound advice it would be necessary to know what the script is, what your input data is and what your desired output is. Post it here (not *all* the data, just a significant sample) and we will think about it.
Lacking any info the best we can do is tell you some generalized hints which may or may not help in your specific case. Here is one: Probably the several sed-calls could be combined to one single script if they are piped one into another. This might speed things considerably.
Another one: maybe you are doing something context-oriented. sed is poor in that and maybe some of its shortcomings are covered by shell constructs. If this is the case you might be better of writing the whole in awk, which will be slower than sed in what sed can do well, but faster than sed and some shell constructs connected in a pipeline.
(For instance: if you try to cut out some part of every line sed is probably faster than then often-seen "awk '{print $5}'", but if the part you are cutting is a number and you want all these numbers totalled at the end than awk is quite better than cutting with sed and adding in a shell loop.)
