IIRC yes, 5 is still increasing, 6 is lower than 4 or 5. If I boot it up in windows, I'll retest. The point was more that the autodetection is IMHO still too immature to enable by default. But those are SSD based values. Increased disk seeking might make it worse on HDDs. _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - [email protected] http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
