A simple dynamic programming trick speeds this up by about 1,000 to one:

digits=19;
M={{0,1},{1,1}};
Det[M];
Clear[a,b]
a[n_]:=If[Max@Eigenvalues@a[n-1]<12,M.a[n-1],a[Floor[(n-1)/2]]];
a[0]:={{0,1},{1,1}};
b[n_]:=b[n]=If[Max@Eigenvalues@b[n-1]<12,M.b[n-1],b[Floor[(n-1)/2]]];
b[0]:={{0,1},{1,1}};
Timing[c=Flatten[Table[a[n],{n,0,digits}]]]
Timing[d=Flatten[Table[b[n],{n,0,digits}]]]
c==d
First@%%%/First@%%

{17.437 Second,{0,1,1,1,1,1,1,
  2,1,2,2,3,2,3,3,5,3,5,5,8,5,8,8,13,1,2,2,3,2,3,3,5,3,5,5,8,5,8,8,13,3,5,5,
    8,5,8,8,13,5,8,8,13,1,2,2,3,2,3,3,5,3,5,5,8,5,8,8,13,3,5,5,8,5,8,8,13,5,8,
    8,13}}

{0.016 Second,{0,1,1,1,1,1,1,2,1,2,2,3,2,3,3,5,3,5,5,8,5,8,8,13,1,2,2,3,2,3,3,
    5,3,5,5,8,5,8,8,13,3,5,5,8,5,8,8,13,5,8,8,13,1,2,2,3,2,3,3,5,3,5,5,8,5,8,
    8,13,3,5,5,8,5,8,8,13,5,8,8,13}}
