  The build process depends on the complexity of the document. If you have an image-heavy document, or a lot of computed results, then going from Markdown to PDF could take several seconds or even minutes. Of course, the advantage of writing the text in Markdown is that you focus on the content and can worry the presentation later. My Impacts Project (https://impacts.to/ https://impacts.to/) takes up to 10 minutes to build because of all the high-resolution images. I can use a different theme, though, that puts in placeholders for the images, and that builds within a few seconds.
