gollark: Basically, the issue with this specific setup is that printed pages have individual NBT, and recent versions will treat differently NBT'd items as separate for caching, so each one got getItemMeta'd individually. I still don't know why it got run several times though.
gollark: (not sure)
gollark: Vanilla turtlegistics does .getItemMeta on all slots, right?
gollark: It is *slower than Artist* (to boot, anyway, and probably during use as it's client-server and not as fancy) but *faster than (probably most) Turtlegisticses*.
gollark: I still assume it's about the same speed as turtlegistics on *this specific dataset* because *this is not ideal for most storage systems*.
