Thanks.

My problem is that I don't see these slow redraws.  I tried in a TTY
session on a GNU/Linux system, using "ls ~" as the command inside
term-mode (my home directory on that system produces a 1500-line list
of files).  I don't see slow redraws, and don't see any perceptible
speed-up when I set bidi-paragraph-direction to left-to-right.

Can you reproduce the problem using 'ls'?
