Hello

I completely removed all iterations of texlive from the spare computer I'm
using for ConTexT (which is quite old - 2013), and reinstalled texlive this
morning.  I'm still getting the same long list of font files being checked,
but the run is down to 20 seconds if I log on as administrator, and that's
just about tolerable for now while I'm experimenting.  I may set up on a
more modern machine in the fullness of time!

Best wishes
