Léo Colisson submitted an update to the
robust-externalize
package.
Version number: 2.0
License type: mit
Summary description: Cache anything (TikZ, python, ...) in a robust, efficient and pure
way
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Major update to this caching library: it brings some major performance improvements (5
times faster than before, so overall we compile the file 22x times faster). We can also
now automatically cache (or not) selected environments and macros, including tikz,
precompile presets etc, parallel compilation of pictures, better documentation on how to
avoid using -shell-escape, and much more.
To achieve this, I needed to introduce some minor non-backward compatible changes (but
the first version CTAN release was only a few days ago, so it should not be too much of
an issue). ----------------------------------------------------------------------
