Is the slowness restricted to the abnormally large files in the leim
subdirectory, such as ZIRANMA.el and ja-dic.el, or is it all lisp files?

If the former, perhaps we should add a variable to control whether the byte
compiler tries to correctly dump circular data structures or not
(`byte-compile-circle'?), and bind it to nil when compiling those large
files as we know they contain no circular data.
