Several areas can be cleaned up to make mandoc even faster. These are

- improve hashing mechanism for macros (quite important: performance)

Line 531 Several areas can be cleaned up to make mandoc even fa

Line 546 Several areas can be cleaned up to make mandoc even fa

- the PDF file is HUGE: this can be reduced by using relative offsets

- instead of re-initialising the roff predefined-strings set before each

parse, create a read-only version the first time and copy it

************************************************************************

Line 547 Several areas can be cleaned up to make mandoc even fa

Line 562 Several areas can be cleaned up to make mandoc even fa

- Find better ways to prevent endless loops

in roff(7) macro and string expansion.

- Finish cleanup of date handling.

Decide which formats should be recognized where.

Update both mdoc(7) and man(7) documentation.
