I would like to pre-compile the preamble to speed up the compilation of my LuaLatex documents.

I have seen several questions regarding this (eg: Question 1, Question 2, Question 3), but all are either pretty old or do not work for me even with the very simple MWE that follows:

\documentclass[11pt,lualatex]{beamer}
\usepackage{amsmath,amsfonts,amssymb}

\begin{document}
\begin{frame}{}
prova \quad $\alpha + \sum_i \beta_i $
\end{frame}
\end{document}

Could you provide the most updated and reliable way to precompile the preamble with LuaLatex? I specifically work on Windows, distribution TexLive 2019, editor TexStudio, but I think a general guide to the "preamble precompilation" operation would be greatly appreciated!

EDIT 1: the solutions in questions 1, 2 and 3 produce the following error when trying to compile the file (after having precompiled the preamble):

! error:  (pdf backend): referenced object has wrong type others; should be obj
!  ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!

    Could you tell why the approaches in the related questions do not work for you? Do you get errors, or are the formats not applied, or something else? – Marijn Mar 18 '20 at 14:51

    @Marijn, sure. They produce errors, which I have specified in the question. I can also post the whole log if you think it is appropriate and useful. – oibaFox Mar 18 '20 at 22:14
  • @oibaFox: were you able to find a solution? I am currently stuck on the same issue. – Gunter May 28 '21 at 07:27
  • @Gunter no, I am sorry. If you find one please let me know! – oibaFox Jul 01 '21 at 10:43
