Details:

grep has a performance issue in an utf8 environment, where it's up to 10
times slower than in a non-utf8 environment.
Problem can be solved by exporting LANG=en_US for example on every call to
grep before executing it, but an upstream solution would be much better and
highly appreciated by a lot of people I guess, since utf8 is now also the
standard in the linux-kernel and not all distributions want to patch grep for
this.
