AFAICT, it isn't the bidi reordering in general, it's the BPA part of
the reordering -- that file has many embedded bracket characters.
I've added a new variable bidi-inhibit-bpa. Try setting it non-nil,
and I think you will see performance very similar to disabling the
reordering entirely. I guess that's another variable for so-long-mode
to futz with...

It makes very little sense to visit a text file with many non-ASCII
characters using find-file-literally, IMO.
