Hi,
I uploaded a new version of lmtx. This version uses a new counter and
dimension model deep down (\newinteger and \newdimension) which is more
efficient in certain cases. From the user's perspective there is no
difference between \newcount and \newdimen although there are some
fundamental differences. I might have overlooked a few cases where it
does make a difference in ConTeXt (easy to handle once I know).
The test suite runs 5-10 % faster depending on the load of the machine
and the gain mostly relates to memory access (where processes fight over
memory and cpu cache). Of course I can probably gain more but using a
faster machien than this 5 year old one but why waste a good machine.
Some other possible speedups are on-hold till I have better test cases.
