I do not think the draft option will work. How is one supposed to<br>
know if the build is final or not when using draft option? I using<br>
your filter <a href="http://main.mk" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">main.mk</a> which figures how many times it needs to call tex4ht.<br>

I am now trying to compare timing result on same small file I used<br>
above but directly on windows using Miktex. But I am getting some<br>
errors using make4ht from my config. Once I figure it out and correct it,<br>
will post timings.<br>
<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>MikTeX can have older TeX4ht files. Karl updates TeX4ht in TeX Live directly, as we don't make uploads to CTAN. So you may need to ask MikTeX maintainers to make the update. <br></div><div><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
This is 12 times faster!<br>
<br>
I expect similar result hopefully when I manage to run make4ht on windows.<br>
<br>
So the slow down seems due to using Virtual box. Since disk access seems<br>
to be much slower than when running directly on windows.<br>
<br>
I need to get me a new PC and install Linux directlty on it and<br>
compare timing. I expect similar timing then as on windows directly.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>That is a huge difference! Did you try WSL to run Linux on Windows? I don't think you need a new PC just for this.</div><div><br></div><div>Best regards,</div><div>Michal <br></div></div></div>
