Hmm, that might also explain the gforth manual (and the emacs manual
which I'm more used to) formatting comparatively slowly.  They're both
in Texinfo, which is a quite complicated TeX macro package that makes
TeX look like a predecessor of Scribe (another markup-based formatter)
with roots in MIT history.  So Texinfo may also slow things down
compared to plain TeX.

Formatting big documents in TeX used to be an inconveniently slow
operation like a big compilation, but on today's hardware TeX's speed is
usually not a significant problem.
