loading 6 fonts, each fonts will be scanned for 3 times. so there are 18 searching. 12 of them are fc searches, and these are quite slow.
if so, then this fc mechanism is pretty messed up as it's just a hash lookup which cna be fast also, it does not explain why simple plain definitions also have a suffix and/or name lookup problem so you'd better make sure that that is fixed too (if only because we cannot be sure of users always using filenames) in the meantime i'll add some lookup caching in the xetex specific context code (costs a bit of extra hash mem but lets not bother about that) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
