Comment #11 on issue 838 by percival.music.ca: Inconsistency in tests  
output size

Han-Wen:
At some point we had code that figured out which font files were being
used in a score, when outputting the .ps.  See framework-ps.scm , look
for load-fonts.  It would be good to know why that stopped working.

The idea was to not reload fonts for every .ly file, but we should
have probably done profiling before going that complicated route.  The
40 is just an arbitrary number, to force a garbage collect of loaded
fonts.


Patrick:
The correct fonts are always loaded, but sometimes *extra* fonts are
also loaded that are not supposed to be there.

I had trouble creating a small test case to reproduce the issue, but
I'll look into it again soon.
