Hi,
Andreas reported some days ago that the iconv functions require a
large part of the startup time. The implementation was really kind of
stupid. The last changes I did were meant to make things work
correctly but I didn't expect them to be slow.
I've now hopefully fixed this. I'm now using better algorithms
without O(n^2) behaviour.
I haven't seen any regressions but please give it a try yourself. And
if somebody can come up with some timing results (before, after) I'd
appreciate seeing them.
