So the problem is that fontconfig is rebuilding the font cache each time 
you restart the app.
This takes a significant amount of time :/

The solution would be to get fontconfig to store the built cache 
somewhere, but that would require to patch fontconfig to store that 
cache somewhere in the application's data. Not sure exactly how to do 
that, but that would probably require to use Android specific API.
