Hi,

I pushed an update (hopefully ok because bots were saturating the logs and such so we ran out of disk space).

Apart from fixes for issues mentioned / encountered the last weeks we also added a goodie file for lm so that Jim can go forward.

I don't know how many users process multiple documents at the same time, but as a side effect of improving performance of processing the test suite (I run 8 parallel processes for it). Here is some fun:

  context --parallel test-1.tex test-2.tex

or with output:

  context --parallel test-*.tex --terminal

a bit more distinct:

  context --parallel test-*.tex --terminal=ansi

if you have more cores:

  context --parallel test-*.tex --terminal=ansi --runners=16

A tex process needs one core so a rule of thumb is the nofcores
multiplied by 2 if hyperthreading is available. On linux one can get 100% saturation, on windows a bit less (the test suite went down from 800 sec for 2200 files to 425 and on linux (wsl) we get to some 260 sec. (A 2018 laptop with 4 xeon cores that hyperthread; I can't test on a faster machine.) Profiled binaries perform some 10% faster.
