Dear Wolfgang
Both of these process very quickly - 2 seconds for each separately, and less than that if I put the Baskerville definition plus simple text after the default Comp. Modern text.
on a bit recent machine (say 5 years old) a simple few page run with lation modern should run way below a second and unless you do complex stuff performance should be some 30-40 pages per second .. if not, there is an issue with your installation
E.g. if TEXINPUT is set to a big tree, TeX will look through that for every file. (I had TEXINPUT.lualatex set for a LaTeX project and it increased processing time with that engine by minutes.)
It's TEXINPIUTS, plural, right? Anyway: mtxrun --configurations will show you where the configuration files are looked for. There you see how TEXMF is configured, like TEXMF = "{$TEXMFHOME,!!$TEXMFPROJECT,!!$TEXMFFONTS,!!$TEXMFLOCAL,!!$TEXMFMODULES,!!$TEXMFCONTEXT,!!$TEXMFSYSTEM,!!$TEXMFMAIN}", You can prefix $TEXMFHOME by !! and it then will get hashed (mtxrun --generate). However, I never use that HOME one and actually nil it. All project files go into texmf-project and extra fonts in texmf-fonts. I don't know how you configured it but you get the idea. It might be a plan to add some sanitizer here, like ignore all non context paths but keep modules and generic because there's where we have the few generic thing useable. However, normally one runs a small installation so ...
