I ran Scribble directly through the command line program 'scribble'. As far as I can tell, under that environment, there are no direct uses of threads or places, so the profile should be in a happy place. >> So about 15% of the time in html-render is spent coersing xexprs to >> xml structure!

It takes 26 seconds altogether on my machine from running scribble from the command line: $ time scribble reference.scrbl As a caveat: my results may be askew from what's done during the normal raco setup documentation timing, since I wrote the reference contents into a single file, rather than the multiple files as would normally be done. I wrapped a (time ...) around the use of xexpr->xml to determine that the coersion from the s-expression representation to the xml structs was taking a few seconds, and measured around 4 seconds is dedicated to xexpr->xml. ____________________ Racket Users list: http://lists.racket-lang.org/users
