Abstract

top
The processing speed of a TeX engine is affected by a number of factors, such as the format, macros, scripting, fonts, microtypographic extensions, SyncTeX, and command-line redirection. The article discusses the individual factors from the perspective of a ConTeXt user. The article also measures the overhead of ConTeXt MkII and MkIV, the impact of command-line redirection on the speed of ConTeXt MkIV, the impact of fonts on the speed of typesetting with ConTeXt MkIV, and the speed of typesetting with ConTeXt MkII and MkIV.
