hi,
Sorry to reopen this issue, but I recently updated ConTeXt again.
I’ve noticed that when compiling this variable font,
it now produces a much larger font cache than before.
Previously, a font instance was only around 30 MB,
but now the compilation balloons to around 150 MB.
I’m not sure why.
there is some info in there that shoudl be wiped (but was there for
testing) so a next upload (probably the latest too) is ok
Moreover, even after the cache has been generated,
each compilation takes far longer than before.
not sure what that means, runtime is not dependent on this, at least not
significant
