If you have a fast machine, this doesn't mean everyone has the same.
Try on at least 300MHz proc to see how quick it is.

The same Info file doesn't change too often, but there are situations when
for instance, the user writes a new Info manual, and in the process of
writing uses the TOC as an overview of the manual (i.e. iterations like
add a new node, revisit the TOC, reorganize its structure, and so on).
