Great. Made a clean install from scratch and now metafun manual compiles great at first run:

Hi,

A new upload. Mojca upgraded the build manager and we also updated some
machines so all binaries (platforms) should be in sync now. (No binaries
for apples M1 and microsofts SQ2 as we don't have these machines, so
just good old intel and arm it is.)

On my rusty laptop the luametatex manual takes between 10 and 10.5 sec
(depending on load). On the raspberry pi 64 bit it takes 32.5 sec
(ubuntu, ssd on usb 3). The Windows Linux Subsystem (version 1) takes
some 11.5 seconds and the domotica fitlet with a low power AMD A10 needs
27.5 sec.) The ratios match measurements of a while ago. In the meantime
the format file got smaller, memory more dynamic and the mem footprint
also smaller. I expect a modern intel laptop cpu to need some 5 seconds
and a decent desktop less but who knows. It's not easy to squeeze out
more (the bottleneck is in the lua code as the (con)tex(t) code is
pretty efficient so we pay a price for flexibility).

(In the process I saw that I bugged the xetex logo but that has to wait
for a next upload. Hardly critital I suspect.)
