[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #59711] Performance of `cd` is bad on Windows

[Markus Mützel]

Update of bug #59711 (project octave):

                  Status:               Need Info => Confirmed              
                 Summary: 30 seconds to load the "ltfat" package =>
Performance of `cd` is bad on Windows

Follow-up Comment #12:

Changing the bug title because this is not limited to loading the "ltfat"
package (albeit that being a good benchmark...).

CC'ing jwe because he added `canonicalize_file_name` to some `load_path˙
functions in 262cdfc6faf9. (To give some context: IIRC, that was a huge[!]
performance gain on Windows wrt a previous regression.)
Is it strictly necessary to use that function there? Or would it be ok to just
use `make_absolute`?
