That's a bold statement. Font lock can involve arbitrarily complicated
regular expressions (maybe even arbitrary code?), and depending on the
major mode it can be slow. Typical examples are large latex or org
buffers.
The advice to report occurrences as a bug is sound, but if it's not a
core mode, the bug report should probably be addressed to the relevant
developers.
