Well, I just tested it, with latest fribidi, on a RedHat Linux 7.1
machine, with the fribidi utility, and a 20mb persian file, that
beside persian (arabic) letters, contains a little english, some
punctuation marks, lots of non-spacing marks, and no explicit marks,
the results was that it was 19 times slower than "sed -d ''", sed took
0.485s while fribidi took 9.7s, I will try it with compiling fribidi
with -O3 later too.
