Is it the Wine code that is slow or the : libc dynamic loader? With everything in memory, I get: root(a)kepler ~ # opreport | grep wine 192 0.2808 wineserver 98 0.1433 libwine_unicode.so.1 82 0.1199 libwine.so.1 root(a)kepler ~ # opreport | grep wtl 20 0.0293 linuxwtl.exe.so Wall-clock time is roughly one second (this is a minimal application). However the CPU time may be much smaller. On Windows/VMware, I get <0.1 seconds for the same program. Claus -- Claus Fischer <claus.fischer(a)clausfischer.com> http://www.clausfischer.com/
