They're fast, yes, but my own gut feeling is that they're not
actually fast *enough* not to be the bottleneck.

I don't know why "especially in the utf-8-hfs case" - the
current code is no more correct for utf-8-hfs on Linux than for
utf-8-hfs on OSX.

I think most people who do this (I should think it would be
SMB/CIFS rather than NFS - if it's really NFS then I suppose the
translation has to happen on the Windows side) have the file-
system translated to UTF-8 [etc] for them by the kernel. There
are mount options "iocharset" and "codepage" (the latter for the
filesystem's coding system on 8-bit filesystems), to take care
of this. Working with multiple different directories with
different filename encoding systems is a pathological case, and
one which as far as I know Emacs makes no attempt to deal with
(except by the user switching manually).
