Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.
Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org mailing
list.
Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:
If fonts are not installed for some characters, then Emacs keeps trying
to find fonts for them every time those characters are redisplayed. The
following excerpt from font-log is with the xft font backend on
GNU/Linux where the search is quick, thus not noticeable, but on Windows
the search for fonts is expensive, so redisplay takes a couple of
seconds. I have cut the end off, as the full font-log is long, but you
can see from the first two font-for entries that Emacs is trying twice
for the same character (and it tries again many times further down the log).

To reproduce: C-h h
On my system, there are boxes displayed for Sinhala, Tibetan, Khmer and
Burmese.
Scroll down so that the first set of boxes disappears just off the top
of the window.
M-: (setq font-log nil)
Scroll back up

If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
`bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
/home/jasonr/emacs/etc/DEBUG for instructions.
