Macro rendering performance:
If the page has multiple latex macros created using Forge version of the app then it will render quite fast
If page having multiple macros created using connect version of the app then first render will be slightly slow but 2nd and subsequent renders will be fast. Having at most 50-60 LaTeX macros in a page is recommended. If the number of macros increases then there could be some performance issue in loading the macros.
