You're right, I didn't think it would have had such a big impact. Using all this external tools is heavy on a big amount of IPs. We should statically link LaTeX, dv2dt, GhostScript and all the rest! Just joking. Then what was your idea? Isolate the failing one? We should also keep in mind that some insest may require legacy method and some others dvipng (quicker). But currently we detect this from the dvi output so a LaTeX call is needed. Maybe we should give the responsibility of .tex file generation to the python script, but I don't think would be such a big improvement. Another choice could be to generate al math insets (is it possible to use PSTricks or tiks in there?) together and then each IP inset separetely. It's more complex than I tought it :P Sorry for the bad patch. venom00
