Hi, Mojca:

However, when comment the second line (\definetypeface [iwona] [mm] [math] [iwona] [default] [encoding=ec]), TeXExec | runtime: 1.828 total compile time is reduced to only 2 seconds. (of course, equations are typeset in latin modern).

But LM should suffer from the same problem.

I think LM tfm/otf metrics information are dumped to fmt statically. See the TeX82 source code (don't know xetex's situation, but i am sure tex82 works like that). Yue Wang
