I am using fontcache through GNU Octave and the Qt graphics toolkit. This is related to an Octave problem (<a href="https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?45458">https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?45458</a>). The original problem in Octave is that after program start, the first plot command takes unusually long to complete (tens of seconds up to minutes). I (and others) have traced this to fc-cache recreating the fontcache every time Octave is restarted. Unfortunately, I can not reliably reproduce the bug anymore since *something* fixed it while running fc-cache as Administrator and using "-r", and now it does not occur anymore. I cannot rule out that this may have been a problem with write permission. I tried to verify the "delete after ten minutes" functionality, but it does not seem to work on windows. I created a .LCK file by appending .LCK to the cache file in the directory. The file persists even if it is days old, and was not deleted by fc-cache (nor "fc-cache -r"). This might be a windows-only problem.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
