If speed were really seriously the issue, pdflatex is faster. And one could generate a specialize format which has all the packages used already preloaded.
But that's deep nerd stuff. Or if generation of large number of documents quickly (such as bank statements) were required.. I have gotten used to the slower speed of LuaLaTeX and use nothing else. And so the handbook takes 136 seconds, which is a bit boring but I got used to it. A prescription takes 1 second with pdflatex and 3 seconds with lualatex. That makes no difference (in my workflow). el On 2021-07-09 19:20 , Steve Litt wrote: [...]
Herbert, given the preceding two paragraphs, is there any reason to use anything BUT lualatex? Thanks, SteveT
