Hi list, From Hans xtable manual:
As each cell is basically a \framed and as we need to do two passes over the table, this mechanism is not the fastest but it is some two times faster than the natural tables mechanism, and in most cases can be used instead. Manuals examples are of course short ones, but I understand this mechanism is faster even on tables that do not expand on more than one page. Does this mean, that extreme tables should now be considered as the recommended way to build tables? Are there simple cases, when natural tables should be obviously preferred?
