Hello
I am using a very short experimental file of five pages to acquaint
myself with ConTexT, and find that processing takes a long time (over a
minute or sometimes over two minutes) because at every run it is
checking on paths etc. - mainly verifying and searching for fonts.
Is there some way to prevent this, either by a command within the file
or by giving something after -- when I invoke ConText (which I do from
the Windows command line)?
I shall paste below a short section of a very long log (1452 lines) so
that ConTexperts can see what I mean.
Best wishes

Why is uhyphens.tex loaded and what is its content?

Show your font setup, something is wrong with it and triggers a refresh
of the database.
