caching buffers?

caching buffers?

[Henning Hraban Ramm]

Ahoi,

in my book I use a lot of buffers for examples. These get typeset (compiled) anew on every tex run (i.e. several times per context run). This needs a lot of time and is quite annoying. Is this somehow cacheable, so that it compiles only once per context run or (even better) only if the buffer changed?

How does the filter module handle this? I know it uses some checksum.
Should I "outsource" my buffers via t-filter?

If you need a MWE for this, I’ll assemble one. My actual setup is quite complicated, maybe that’s the problem...

Greetlings, Hraban

\starttext

     \startbuffer[old-feature]
         % load the relevant environment if needed
         It works!
     \stopbuffer

     \typesetbuffer[old-feature][frame=on,width=4cm]

\stoptext

Only when buffers change they will be retypeset.

I used the same buffer name all the time.
Sorry for the noise.
