The search term is normalized by the server using $wgContLang->normalize(), which potentially includes transformations beyond NFC, especially if the content language is Arabic or Malayalam. So even if you do client-side NFC using the same version of Unicode as the server, there is at least a hypothetical possibility of a hang.
Replied on gerrit.
