I tried -WL, which also returned filenames time i686-w64-mingw32-objdump -WL bin/assistant.exe > /dev/null and got real 0m0.178s user 0m0.158s sys 0m0.020s which is much faster than the 4.3s quoted on https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1202431#c8 when using -Wi and makes me suspect that most of the time is spent printing the results. Unfortunately, -WL cannot be used in its current form due to https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29523. > If you would care to put together a patch to implement the idea I > would be happy to review it. Thanks for you offer > PS. In the meantime, would it be OK if I closed this PR ? yes, thanks for you support. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
