there used to be a bug in JDK that loaded ALL of the font files before
starting Swing. perchance the bug has resurfaced. there used to be a
FONTS environment variable that controlled the loading location. the fix
was to set up a fonts directory with a small number of fonts and point
the environment variable there. the speedup was dramatic.
