The part I intend to focus on is strictly file conversion.
I could be wrong... perhaps I'll write down some specific filesize/processing type/length of time data later this week... it seems to me I can quite heavily process several (5+, 10+) MB RTF files with Python in the same amount of time it takes to convert an under 2 MB file from one reflow format to another... which is basically an HTML-ish to HTML-ish type conversion. No?
If you are aware of the various pitfalls, doubtless there is good reason why things take as long as they do... but it always felt oddly (though not disruptively) slow to me.
