The overlays is not the main problem here, the main problem is that
your buffer is made of digits, which are neutral characters for the
bidirectional display, so it needs to work much harder. Compare with
this:
(let ((n 65536))
(save-excursion (dotimes (i n) (insert (format "a%d\n" i))))
(dotimes (i n) (make-overlay (point) (progn (forward-line) (point))))
(message "Done."))
I see no bugs here, just known issues/limitations of the current
display engine.
