PS: You would get the same kind of behaviour in MKII (however if MKII
only runs twice and if there is a speed factor of 1.5, you could
declare MKII being "three times faster" which does make some
difference when compilation time is long).

depends on the changes ... in an automated flow, if you knwo what happens you can limit it with a flag

PPS (not to be taken (too) seriously): But I wouldn't be surprized if,
say, two years from now you would try to repeat the experiment just to
find out that MKIV became faster. (Unlikely to happen, but imaging

sure, i'm current redoing the font code a bit and gain some time (and memory in mkiv) .. but don't expect miracles
