Font cache issues on Windows 10

Where are we at with the font caching issue on Windows 10? There does not appear to be much discussion on the bug list presently, but I certainly experience the slow down. After being advised to remove the font cache directory, things speed up after that, when using Frescobaldi. But now I am

RE: Skyfonts

Hi Knut, Thank you, but no way. I am fussy about the ethics of using fonts and this is not a viable solution, although perhaps technically possible. I'd say that is illegal in _any_ country, at least according to the Monotype licensing, and fair enough I say. In any case I want to test out

How to get a polymeter with time signature 89888449/5199909 against 742739/45045

Hi mclaren, I would not know how to play these nested tuplets and I would have difficulties with that piece. But that's not the question. The empty staves are there, because you ask for them with your \breaks variable. Wherever you put \breaks into the music (at least 3 times in your score), you
