Asciidoc + Hugo performance

support
14

It seems the overhead is due to there being one asciidoctor process spawned per file. Running asciidoctor in batch mode is fast.

My benchmarking attempts with

  • hyperfine (benchmarking tool)

  • laptop: 2020 arm m1 macbook air, 8gb ram, macos ventura 13.5.1

  • hugo version: v0.111.3+extended

  • site Summary

    Pages 121
    Non-page files 29
    Static files 9
