Though I did notice a significant performance drop: The TextMate

the new version this has increased to almost 30 seconds.
Is that a single file, or a bunch of files? That'd be a great test case either way

It’s one file per chapter, although for this test I merged them.

would you be willing to share the source input and your build script?

Sure, of course this is probably more of a benchmark test, as I try to avoid edge cases.

Here are the pages: <http://macromates.com/textmate/manual/source.tbz>

I left out the build script, as that just wraps the output in ERb templates, creates Table of Contents etc. which IMO is not useful for testing Markdown converters themselves. The markdown.references is the shared reference list for the chapters, so that should be appended to whatever file is converted.

(Or if you already have, remind where
exactly I can find it -- I do recall your weblog post from a few
months back explaining your Markdown-based documentation system.)

More than half a year has actually passed, yes, time sure flies ;)
