Bug#1070150: Loading of expl3.ltx **extremely** slow on emulated runs
Hi all,
at Debian they got a report that loading expl3.ltx when building formats
is **extremely** slow when running under emulations:
1070150@bugs.debian.org
Running fmtutil output through ts (timestamp utility from moreutils):
May 01 14:28:46 LaTeX2e <2024-06-01> pre-release-0 (develop 2024-5-1 branch)
May 01 14:28:46 (/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/l3kernel/expl3.ltx
May 01 14:51:15 (/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/l3kernel/expl3-code.tex)) hacks,
May 01 14:51:19 document commands, control, par, spacing, files, font encodings, lengths,
That is 23 **minutes** to load expl3-code.tex. Ok, the file is nearly 4k
lines, but still, 23 minutes seems to be excessive.
Any ideas?
Please keep the Cc
Best regards
Norbert
