I'm a huge fan of LuaLaTeX but it does have one disadvantage: It takes
(subjectively) about twice as long to compile a LaTeX document to PDF.

Most people don't care whether the occasional LyX=>PDF takes 30 second
or 50 seconds because they do this so rarely, but in my case my book
fulfillment process compiles the doc for every eBook emailed out. 

Because of this extra time, I haven't hurried to make *all* my books
compile with LuaLaTeX. Note that my finding is subjective and
anecdotal, so more info is needed.
