I noticed that the really latest code (Aug 23) is 8% slower than the
Aug 21 code under comparable circumstances.

This is how I measure (as have other on the Mac OS X TeX list):
1. Put the following (what is between the ====== lines) in the file
tex-perf
=====================================
#!/bin/sh
for i in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
do
fmtutil --byfmt pdflatex >/dev/null
done
=====================================
2. Make the file executable:
chmod +x tex-perf
3. Run the following command:
sudo time ./tex-perf
Enter your password and let it run. After a while, it reports a
result. Send that result back to me with a description of the system
you have used with information about your system.
