>From my earlier message: On my machine updating autoloads takes only a fraction of a second.
I believe I forgot to notice that: $ make autoloads EMACS=../src/emacs apparently only updates autoloads for those Lisp files that have changed since the last update. Since my CVS was up to date that meant no files, so obviously it was completely instantaneous. (I personally always use `make maintainer-clean' and `make-bootstrap' when I update my CVS, so I have not a lot of experience with running `make autoloads' manually.) Still, if one updates regularly, it should rarely take a lot of time, because not that many Lisp files will have changed, and if there were a lot of Lisp changes, then it is extremely likely that some autoload will have been added or the value of some autoloaded variable will have changed, so that updating autoloads will probably be necessary.
