Dear Friends, Yesterday I updated cygwin and now latex is amazingly slow. By this I mean that its output comes out about 1 line per second. You know, stuff like this:
.. (/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/hyperref/hyperref.sty (/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/hyperref/pd1enc.def) (/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/config/hyperref.cfg) Implicit mode ON; LaTeX internals redefined (/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/misc/url.sty)) *hyperref using driver hdvips* (/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/hyperref/hdvips.def (/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/hyperref/pdfmark.def)) (./PPRjmadams.sty Jmadams style for Prosper --- ... It is normal for this stuff to fly by even on slower machines like my Linux box, which is only 433Mhz. I am not observing any other performance problems on the system. So, I wonder whether something is wrong with latex. Comments? Thanks a lot, -- John M.
