TeX - LaTeX Asked on July 16, 2021

We are plan to install texlive on server share folder (windows) in our institution. I have a doubt regarding How many user can access the Xelatex.exe and latex.exe at the same time for compilation
nearly 70 users can access the exe at the same time?

if users are access at the same time the compilation will be very slow?

please suggest

Donald Arseneau's comment on fontspec font caching is spot-on. Add a line

FC_CACHEDIR = $TEXMF-VAR/fonts/cache

to [root]texmf.cnf

For quite some time I maintained a shared TL installation for my university and wrote a launcher replacing the usual TL system integration for windows. This package is available in TL as tlaunch. Its manual also has something to say about the xetex font cache.
