Startup time is 0.531 seconds. OK. Then, why on the Earth all these lmxxx fonts are loaded, if I use Minion Pro typescript? 2.7sec... Hmmm. Seems like a root of evil. What can I do to get rid of all of them?

those fonts are loaded for math (and only once as fonts are shared)

My typescript:
\starttypescript [serif] [MinionPro]
\definefontsynonym [Serif][MinionPro-Regular.otf][features=default]
\definefontsynonym [SerifBold][MinionPro-Bold.otf][features=default]
\definefontsynonym [SerifItalic][MinionPro-It.otf][features=default]
\definefontsynonym [SerifBoldItalic][MinionPro-BoldIt.otf][features=default]
\stoptypescript

\starttypescript [MinionPro]
\definetypeface [MinionPro][rm][serif][MinionPro][default]
\stoptypescript

this takes 2.5 seconds on my machine

\starttext
    \usetypescript[palatino]   \setupbodyfont[palatino]     test\par
    \usetypescript[postscript] \setupbodyfont[postscript]   test\par
    \usetypescript[cambria]    \setupbodyfont[cambria]      test\par
\stoptext

(there is a way to prevent initial loading but it does not save that much time)

two cores is less important than a big 2 level cache (influences lua runtime) and memory (so that files are cached in mem)
