Hi all,

I noticed a performance regression between 24.3 and 25.0.50, connected to CJK fonts. The following steps reproduce the issue in master:

1. emacs -Q, and open the scratch buffer
2. Run the following code:
    (progn
     (dotimes (_ 3)
       (set-fontset-font t 'unicode (font-spec :name "Arial") nil 'append))
     (dotimes (_ 50)  
       (insert "日本国\n")))
3. Move the cursor around. Notice that motion is extremely slow (in particular C-p and C-n). So is shift-selection. (if it is not, try increasing the 3 above, maybe to 5 or 10).

This test case is the smallest I could come up with; there might be other ways to trigger the problem. In my particular case, it is caused by having 10 or so distinct fontset rules, covering different blocks of characters. This problem was mentioned elsewhere online too (for example https://github.com/purcell/emacs.d/issues/273).

I tried to pinpoint the commit that introduced the bug, and found revision af1a69f4d17a482c359d98c00ef86fac835b5fac by bisecting between 24.3 and master. Here's the commit in question:

  af1a69f4d17a482c359d98c00ef86fac835b5fac is the first bad commit

      * font.c (font_list_entities): Do not add empty vector to font cache.
      (font_matching_entity): Likewise.  If matching entity is found, insert
      1-item vector with this entity instead of entity itself (Bug#17125).

  :040000 040000 2065e6bd6470194ed976fc343a0fd8932cc88a6c 73da4b1e64a36b066c965e70b9a0ba79c091336d M	src

(by the way, the process was a bit slow; is there a way to make builds faster, maybe by building only the emacs binary? `make src/emacs` does not work, and `make src` spends some time loading el files and generating autoloads)

I added the full bisect log below. Is there any extra info that I should provide?
Thanks!
Clément.
