Recipe from 'emacs -Q':
  M-: 3072 RET

This has the result of echoing "3072 (#o6000, #xc00)", but there's a
pause of around 8 seconds before the result is echoed. The long wait
is the bug I'm reporting.

I peeked at what was going on using Process Monitor. 11536 times, Emacs
successfully opened one of the 112 '.NLS' (codepage mapping?) files in
my C:\Windows\System32 folder. 2096 times, it opened one of 222 font
files in C:\Windows\Fonts. (I surmise it is searching for a font that
has a glyph for #xc00.)

Forgive me if this is hopelessly naive, but as we're only looking for
one {character or whatever}, is there room to optimize by memoizing
the corresponding {whatever} in each codepage, and using it while we're
searching the font files? (I don't know if it's worth it. I can't see
using Process Monitor how much time is spent reading '.NLS' files.)

This seems to be present in both the emacs-25 and master branches.

Maybe a dup of http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=21131

Hah, which I must have looked at before, because I merged it with #19023.

It looks for a font to display the codepoint.

It's Windows that does this, not us.  Emacs just tries all the fonts
it can, looking for the character, until it gives up.
