Hi, Manish

Thank you for building emax64. It works perfectly. However, one thing that bothers me is the slow loading speed on Windows since I installed lots of packages. One way to mitigate this problem is to use pdumper version of emacs. I tried to compile it myself, but couldn't figure out how to configure imagemagick to work properly. I think it would be great if emax64 could support pdumper. Please consider building a pdumper version of emax64. Thanks!

Hello et2010,

I have just released an emax64 version of the emacs-pdumper branch. Get it here: https://github.com/m-parashar/emax64/releases/tag/pdumper-20180619

See if everything works as it should.

@et2010 does it improve your loading speed on Windows ?

et2010 commented

Yes, the loading time is improved greatly. with 360+ packages, from 2+ minutes to within 3 seconds.
