err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0xXXXXXXX "?" wait timed out, retrying (60sec) fs = XXXX

[Sylvain Petreolle]

Hi,

Like many users now,
I have this message when I launch some programs :

err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0xXXXXXXX
"?" wait timed out, retrying (60sec) fs = XXXX

To clear the situtation : What does this message means
and what could be done to make it disappear ?

Some users have made post with these and have got no response...

This can happen with some large applications that have a lot of windows when
they initially start. It takes a LOT longer to complete the initial redraw
under wine than windows and this can cause the message to occur. However it
will not cause an error as the CriticalSection will wait a further 5 minutes
before really timing out.

I have attached a patch which makes some of my applications start TEN times
quicker (so no timeout message), you may want to recompile wine with this
patch and see if it helps.

I'll try this this afternoon.
I must say i had this message even with a application 
that only used ONE window (okay, was a big program...)
Thanks for the information.

Hi,

that helps a lot ! programs run faster and faster now.
thanks.

If this has no unwanted effects with other programs,
could this be commited ? this gives really a speed
improvement.

HI,

I submitted it a while ago, but it was never committed for some reason. This
patch is probably just a band-aid to a larger problem...
