V4.1 gives a fast result:

((8*r*x*EllipticK[-((4*r*x)/(r^2 - 2*r*x + x^2 + z^2))])/

Sqrt[r^2 - 2*r*x + x^2 + z^2] -

(1/(2*r*x))*((-r^2 - x^2 - z^2)*

(4*Sqrt[r^2 - 2*r*x + x^2 + z^2]*

EllipticE[-((4*r*x)/(r^2 - 2*r*x + x^2 + z^2))] -

(4*(r^2 + x^2 + z^2)*EllipticK[

-((4*r*x)/(r^2 - 2*r*x + x^2 + z^2))])/

Sqrt[r^2 - 2*r*x + x^2 + z^2])))/

(r^4 - 2*r^2*x^2 + x^4 + 2*r^2*z^2 + 2*x^2*z^2 + z^4)
