Feels like this would be a good candidate for Pike's programming rules (https://www.cs.unc.edu/~stotts/COMP590-059-f24/robsrules.htm...):

"Rule 1. You can't tell where a program is going to spend its time. Bottlenecks occur in surprising places, so don't try to second guess and put in a speed hack until you've proven that's where the bottleneck is.

Rule 2. Measure. Don't tune for speed until you've measured, and even then don't unless one part of the code overwhelms the rest."

Very cool! TIL about Ghostscript: https://ghostscript.com/about/index.html

Awesome to see someone continuing in the tradition of free/libre OSS: https://linuxclass.heinz.cmu.edu/doc/Open-Source-books/Free-...

Interesting to see how their CLI compares with GitLab's CLI interface for stacked diffs (the only support they offer at the moment): https://docs.gitlab.com/user/project/merge_requests/stacked_.... Most things are the same (up/down/top/bottom vs. next/prev/first/last, init vs. create), but both feel quite limiting. I've heard of other systems such as Gerrit that offer better native support, but have not tried out any for myself.
