        I'm always a bit scared about font caching problems :-) Last I looked
in this area we had some -hideous- (IIRC an order of magnitude+)
performance degradation when we turned some related cache in that file
off for some use-cases:

        https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47636

        Indeed it was so bad we had an MAB related to this:

        https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44719

        I assume that neither of these come back with the fix ? :-) hopefully
it is yet-another (different) cache we're talking about there.

        Thanks !

                Michael.
