Actually, I'm mistaken (I think) about the symptoms. I *thought* it was
fontifying because I see the following progress bar in my minibuffer
(shortened for clarity)
Contents.java: [######################################] ... done
But this doesn't appear to be font-lock's message because if I call
"M-x font-lock-fontify-buffer" I get the following in my minibuffer:
Fontifying Contents.java... (regexps.............)
So what exactly is being done? I looked all over and I haven't yet
found who is generating this message. Bovinator??

try using lazy font lock -- much faster.
