Stealth fontification GCs a lot

I have been trying Font Lock mode, which I never used to use before.
I notice that when stealth fontification is occurring, Emacs spends
about 1/3 of its time GCing.  The frequent GCs make for annoying
latency when I type another command.

Could someone investigate why so much consing goes on during
fontification, and try to make it more efficient?
