Hi,
Here are the highlights of todays update:
- somewhat more compact tuc files, not for all documents, but it can
accumulate; also less memory used then; i could bring down an extreme
2000 page 5 column doc tuc file down to 5% -- it was 70 MB; for the
luametatex manual it reducec the tuc more than 30%; hard to tell if
there will be an associated performance hit, but i'm sure thomas will
complain if that's the case
I never realized that tuc files can grow so big. For big documents, would it
make sense to simply read and write zipped tuc files?
normally they are not that large but when you enable for instance
mechanisms that need positioning they can grow large .. zipping makes
for less bytes but still large files and the overhead for serialization
stays
(to some extend trying to make these things small is like compression
but in a different way .. could be a nice topic for a ctx meeting)
