Font caching problems on the Mac

[Arle Lommel]

A while back I mentioned very long start-up times for Lilypond on the Mac and 
someone suggested that the problem is with font caching. Today I was able to 
confirm that as the case. I installed a number of new fonts (Noto from Google) 
and suddenly Lilypond was facing extremely long load times (walk away and 
prepare yourself a cup of your favorite beverage and check back to see if it’s 
done recaching the fonts).

Not sure what can be done, as the inefficiency is in the font handling 
mechanism.
