Subject: 26.1; Big hang when opening text (racket) files with .art extension
 (image-mode)
Date: Wed, 06 Feb 2019 13:31:15 +0100

Tested with emacs -Q: opening a .art file
(e.g. https://raw.githubusercontent.com/euhmeuh/rilouw.eu/master/articles/hello.art)
will hang Emacs for about a minute (on a rather powerful computer).  CPU
is about 0% but disk I/O oscillates between 80MB/s-400MB/s (your mileage
may vary).

It seems to be because Emacs tries to open the .art file in image-mode.
The regexp seems to be added by imagemagick-register-types.

Removing .art from auto-mode-alist works.  The following workaround will
remove the complete regexp, that is, all extensions added by
imagemagick-register-types.

  (dolist (pair auto-mode-alist)
    (when (string-match (car pair) ".art")
      (delete pair auto-mode-alist)))
