What confuses me is that pdfluatex and pdflualatex behave so
different. The only difference is that the format files contain
different macros.
I have snapshot-0.37.0-2009040522 installed. Could you send me a
format file for this version you created yourself?
$ md5sum pdflualatex.fmt
11053089e8372a41606f19678af04724 pdflualatex.fmt
Hans, I get similar behavior on Windows indeed. pdflualatex takes 3.8
seconds while pdfluatex starts virtually immediately.
Regards,
Reinhard

Microsoft isn't the answer. Microsoft is the question, and the answer is NO.
