Yes. It slows down as the file size increased.<br>
<br>
lualatex is running. Not hanged or anything. But very slow.<br>
<br>
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND<br>
21615 me 20 0 832316 816708 6592 R 99.7 1.6 392:40.05 lualatex<br>
<br>
The file has 9,000 problems (each on its own subsection, each problem<br>
is read from separate latex file in separate sub folder).<br>
<br>
When I had about 6,000 problems, it was fast. About 1-2 hrs to compile.<br>
<br>
After adding more problems, I see the slow down.<br>
<br>
I see the output going to the terminal OK as we speak. But it takes<br>
about 20-30 seconds to see one line printed after the other on<br>
the terminal. Very slow.<br>
<br>
Initially the printed lines were coming to the screen<br>
very fast (scrolling) but then the line scrolling becomes slower and slower.<br>
<br>
At this rate it will take 10 months to compile this one file.<br>
<br>
The Latex file does \subimport to load individual latex file for each<br>
problem. There are almost 9,000 \subimport in the latex file.<br>
<br>
When compiled to PDF it should be about 50,000 pdf pages.<br>
<br>
I can make a zip file with everything and the command I use to compile<br>
if someone wants to see for themselves. But it will be large zip.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I can check it , if you want. </div><div><br></div></div><div><br></div>-- <br><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature">luigi<br></div></div>
