+    \startitemize
+        \startitem speed matters in a edit-run-preview cycle although this is mostly perception \FlushStep \stopitem
+        \startitem the nicer the interface, the slower it gets, but you seldom set something up \FlushStep \stopitem
+        \startitem everything you provide gets used at some point, also in inefficient ways \FlushStep \stopitem
+        \startitem lots of local (grouped) tweaks leads to many mechanisms kicking in unseen \FlushStep \stopitem
+        \startitem wrong use of functionality can have drastic and unexpected speed penalties \FlushStep \stopitem

+        \startitem of course the machine (Dell M90, SSD, 4GB, 2.33 Ghz T7600, Windows 8) and versions if \LUATEX\ (0.72+) and \CONTEXT\ matter \FlushStep \stopitem

+    \startitemize
+        \startitem load macros and \LUA\ code is loaded from the format \FlushStep \stopitem
+        \startitem the system gets initialized, think of fonts and languages \FlushStep \stopitem
+        \startitem additional (runtime) files are loaded \FlushStep \stopitem
+        \startitem text is typeset and eventually gets passed to the page builder \FlushStep \stopitem
+        \startitem pages are packaged, this includes reverting to global document states \FlushStep \stopitem
+        \startitem the \PDF\ representation is created \FlushStep \stopitem
+        \startitem each of these steps has its bottlenecks \FlushStep \stopitem
+        \startitem the more we don, the more \LUA\ gets involved \FlushStep \stopitem

+
+    \startitemize
+        \startitem avoid copying boxes where possible \FlushStep \stopitem
+        \startitem only enable initializers and finalizers when functionality is used \FlushStep \stopitem
+        \startitem be clever with fonts, in usage as well as in supporting features \FlushStep \stopitem
+        \startitem use trial runs in multi||pass mechanisms \FlushStep \stopitem
+        \startitem avoid too much macro expansion (only matters for tracing) \FlushStep \stopitem
+        \startitem accept that more functionality has a price \FlushStep \stopitem
+    \stopitemize
+
+    but
+
+    \startitemize
+        \startitem don't compromise functionality \FlushStep \stopitem
+        \startitem avoid too obscure code \FlushStep \stopitem
+        \startitem forget about optimization by means of combining functionality \FlushStep \stopitem
