Additional comments
-
The last executed script is always libraries/vendor/joomla/string/src/phputf8/mbstring/core.php. Lines 41 or 94.
The caller is libraries/joomla/filter/input.php. -
Restoring the 'libraries/joomla/filter/input.php', 'libraries/joomla/filter/output.php' to version < 3.7.0 fixes the issue.
Votes
That file hasn't changed in 3 years, restoring that file could not "fix" anything.
Sorry, guys, fixed the description of issue.

I confirm the issue, IHAC reporting the same. I was not able to reproduce yet but I believe this is tinymce specific. Initially the user reported that html formatting was not visible in tinymce (just plain text), to workaround the situation I moved the user specific usergroup to "set0" in the tinymce plug-in. The user is part of a sub-set of the Managers with less less priv (mostly restricted to Users, Articles, Categories, Modules and 1-2 core components + one well ranked 3rd party component).
But he is still hitting the time out in libraries/vendor/joomla/string/src/phputf8/mbstring/core.php on line 94
Was working like a charm in 3.6.5. Average articles in French are about 300 characters, so probably not "size" related.

Brian, my manual change was just about the template names (my bad, I should not have created the templates with such naming), otherwise the file is unmodified. I'm suspecting the user to enter a strange sequence of characters coming along with a cut&paste likely from word. If I can access to the .doc I'll try to nailed down the sequence and post again.
