Were both runs from the same point--were they "virgin" runs?
Did you precede the texexec command with a "texutil --purgeall" command,
for example?

My TeX source file is a single file with images. Most of the TeX-work is done for positioning
floats I think (figures, tables) and for creating backgrounds.


So I just renamed the TeX file for both runs into new file names, and upated TeX for the second run.
I can redo the experiment on a clone machine which hasn't been updated yet, but I don't
know whether "texutil --purgeall" will change anything. But if you tell me that it will, I'll give it a try.


Hmm. If you renamed the file for each run, then ignore that advice. I
don't think that would be it, then.

can you make a small file that runs slower with the new versions?

sometimes these things are not related to context, but to your tex tree: the bigger the slower, as well as settings in texmf.cnf
