Dear Maintainer,

After the last upgrade of texlive packages in Sid, from 2023.20240207-1 to 2024.20240401-2, I found pdflatex very slow in the compilation. The same documents
compiled with the 2023.20240207-1 version were bult quicker. Is it a problem on my side or is a generalbehavior?

Hi,

See the discussion in Bug#1070150. Does that sound familiar.

Do you have a test document that you can share?

Also, the output of running the compile command with
	pdflatex -kpathsea-debug=NNNN
might help, but that can get considerably volominous.

Best regards

Norbert

I'm working on a voluminous book and it is not practical to share

I can't understand exactly the use of -kpathsea-debug=NNNN. What means
NNNN? Is a path for a file? If I put a path for a file it isn't
created anything and the log file created after the compilation is the
same as without -kpathsea-debug.

Note also that the problem is not that Texlive 2024 is slow, but that
2024.20240401-2 is slower than 2023.20240207-1

Thanks
