Hans,
Here are the stats for a 346 page book. Fonts are all cached. Compilation is via a make file which processes this as:
context --noconsole --overloadmode=error --batchmode --nonstopmode --nosynctex misquotation_bodyonly.mkvi > nul
and is run under W11 x64 on an i7-8550U. The only tables are contents
ok, not the fastest i7 out there, more the tablet one, right?
and acronyms, and such, nothing complex. No graphics. Compact fonts are enabled.
can you check compact mode .. when compact fonts are not enabled, do you get the same

i wonder why so many instances

this is suspicious ... i fixed a dir leak recently but having 3K boxes dangling ...
In neither case do the sum of the times listed in the stats come close to the total runtime (in the second example, 14.774 seconds of 23.057 are accounted), so there are other unidentified processes involved.
In any case, the processing time has been improving greatly over the last couple of years, and LMTX is significantly faster that MkIV in all of my work. sure, that is to be expected although it depends a bit on the use case, for instance the backend is slower (but does much more) so initially lmtx was actually slower but at some point we started gaining (and i can
these stats are an indication because below a threshold (time accuracy) nothing is measured probably gain a little more) i wonder why directions bump time because much of what tex does is sort of agnostic for directions (the backend needs more time but i don't see that in your stats) when you run with --profile you get a much slower run but might get some info from the extra log Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.nl | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
