re downloaded and atempt to extract
so shortened the name right click open with SumatraPDF 3 seconds later (its a big file for an epub) although its 16.0 MB in 162 Files (mainly 128 image files across the 16,785,408 bytes)
Primary lag will be unpacking those contents to view in order since as a simple non epub zip it would be well under a second for those image pages, biggest file is the humungous css to keep adjusting text styling.
Removing all history to see raw opening time I tried open that file alone and its 2-3 seconds on its own
However I admit that in 3.1.2 its neigh on instant but then the render engine was much different (simpler without css).

Strange, PDF version of it opens almost instantly. Oh well, guess I'll go back to Sumatra 3.2.
Well the issue here is the dev told me the EPUB opens for him in 2 seconds after a patch, but that's not the case for me, which is why I bring it up again ! & hence I'm unable to keep abreast /w the latest versions (3.5) —missing out on TXT files support !
txt files used to open in all versions,
but perhaps not as a listed .ext, the core difference with the new engine is it tries to resolve the cascade of styles and that particular calibre cascade looks to me like Niagara fails, but for me the 21,000 lines of searching ends in line 21023 @ under 4 seconds

No SumatraPDF 3.2 (the version which loads EPUB speedily, does NOT have support for textfiles, as shown in the screenshot ! So I need the latest version, but it hangs my system for a LONG time while loading EPUBs !
Ahh to read text in 3.2 the UI must be fixed
Or try 3.3 where it is automatic
Thanks a lot, I didn't know about the Toggle Ebook UI feature —works well !
Hmm thinking about your issue the root could be too many fonts I have 81 active in main OS and only 77 in working (sandbox) OS How many items are in your C:\windows\fonts folder ?
551 items
Ok that might be the cause (~6.8 times delay? not the observed 20 times slower but there can be other factors too) as other apps that have to trawl/crawl large font libraries complain. So I think this is related to the new MuPDF engine needs to search font library over and over for each not found text font.
@kjk when font is first time not found can MuPDF be flagged to not search for the same documents missing text line resources over and over? OR at that first fail use a fallback for all repeat calls Related https://github.com/sumatrapdfreader/sumatrapdf/issues/2669
I've reported this before, but it's unresolved for 4+ months, & I've waited for updates to fix it but it's taking 40 seconds to open an EPUB file of 11,265 KB ! You said it would take 2 seconds to load but it hangsup the app for 25+-40 seconds to load. I tried renaming it & putting it in the root drive, then making it launch as administrator, but nothing fixes it. It opens PDF's instantly but large EPUB's are lagging like crazy. I currently am using Sumatra 3.2 64bit until it's resolved but I don't have access to TextFiles which Sumatra 3.5 opens. If you need any Debug or Log files let me know. Sumatra is an indispensable tool for me in my research so could you please do something about this ?
