Thanks for the report and the suggestions.

Yu Shao has just suggested to me the following heuristic for CJK
fonts: an encoding is supported by the font if fewer than 2% of the
glyphs are missing. I'm going to implement this scheme, and Big-5
encodings should be properly generated in the next version.
RG> The spacing value 'm' still will cause delay with rxvt. Don't know why. :)
There's an optimisation (hack) for charcell (as opposed to monospaced)
fonts in the FreeType backend. The delay you're seeing is what
happens when we don't apply said hack.

I need to think about it some more. What if Microsoft comes up with
Courier New Unicode?
I'm more tempted to peek at the font's bounding box to determine if
it's charcell. I'll need to check whether this gives good results.
