you discount the overhead. The current major problem with 2.2 as far as I
understand it is that it is very slow in building docs, because the start-up
overhead happens for every snippet. I think the biggest risk for this is a
bigger likelihood for developers to skip the make doc step, which used to be
the gold standard for committing.
To the contrary, now that Guile 2 byte-compilation
has been fixed I see *faster* startup time with
Guile 2. To wit:
- Official 2.23.4 binary with Guile 1:
$ time echo "" | ~/lilypond2.23.4/bin/lilypond -s -
real 0m0,445s
user 0m0,401s
sys 0m0,047s
- Self-compiled LilyPond with Guile 2:
$ time echo "" | out/bin/lilypond -s -
real 0m0,247s
user 0m0,233s
sys 0m0,019s
That is great news!
Carl
