Gentlemen, thanks for the many helpful replies!
To start with, it now works for me and I can measure a consistent speedup of 7x (!) for using emacsclient - in an interactive web service (conversion of org-files to HTML) the difference between 0.35 s and 2.40 s (average) is significant. (1) Having started the emacs server with emacs --daemon=org this shell script works for me: #!/bin/sh emacsclient -s org --eval "(progn (add-to-list 'load-path \"/opt/org-6.33c/lisp/\") (require 'org)(require 'org-exp) (setq org-export-headline-levels 2) (find-file \"$1\") (org-export-as-html 2 nil nil nil nil \".\") (kill-buffer))" I have added a (kill-buffer) statement for cleaning up (I observed an increasing number of emacsclient processes before), is this a good solution? (2) A problem remains with (1): it seems that I need to "name" the daemon. Otherwise there could be a conflict with Emacs daemons started by other users. How can I make sure the daemon is running if the script requires it? I read about a "-a" option for emacsclient - how would this work in my case? Many thanks in advance.
