All my tests in this thread have been with the Arabic example text in
HELLO, though the file with which I first noticed the slowdown contains
much more and different Arabic text, as well as ASCII and non-ASCII
characters without shaping. Here, the speed difference, when executing
movement and other commands in a buffer with a long line of
bidirectional text containing shaped Arabic, between
bidi-display-reordering t and nil is like night and day. If it's not
that way for you I can only assume it's due to another factor
distinguishing our systems that hasn't yet been identified.
