Subject: bug#19023: 24.4; Long pause when evaluating numeric expression

In GNU Emacs 24.4.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin13.4.0, NS apple-appkit-1265.21)
of 2014-10-20 on builder10-9.porkrind.org

In a fresh emacs -Q, if I type:

    M-: 1000000 RET

there is a pause of about 10 seconds before Emacs displays:

    1000000 (#o3641100, #xf4240)

I suggest that the length of this pause be reduced.
