Good call; thanks for following up, and apologies for fixing the problem only partially!
AFAICT, the remaining slowdown is due to maintaining fl_xfont more accurately; I can fix it by updating that variable only on demand, but doing so would break flwm, and perhaps also a few applications outside Debian. Nevertheless, there is a workaround for such applications, so I'll ask flwm's maintainer to take care of it and proceed with the fix shortly. -- Aaron M.
