Thanks x 2, Chris.
Probably my end, I agree.
Raul's experience seems ok, at least as far as loading JQT is concerned.
I think I tried disabling virus-checkers and stuff, but I haven't done
a systematic check. I suppose Classic Menu could be at fault, though
JQT seems to be my only s/w that suffers in this way?!
I'll let you know if I discover anything useful.

I retested this by rebooting Windows 8.1 and loading JQt. I now find that
the initial load of J takes about 4 seconds, and subsequent loads <1
second.
The first time I had tested was immediately after installation, and perhaps
whatever initialization needed by Windows was done during the installation
itself.
So it looks like a few seconds are needed the first time JQt is loaded, and
otherwise it is essentially immediate.
Mike's problem is most likely related to his machine or other software that
he has installed.

Some weeks ago I'd reported a considerable delay in loading JQT on my
Windows 8.1 notebook - have you tried that yet? When I restarted JQT just
now (using the latest J802 installation), it took about a minute for the
terminal window to appear, so it's still annoyingly slow to get going.
I just installed Windows 8.1 Enterprise Edition and J802. JQt loaded
immediately (<1 second), first time and subsequent times.

However, task-manager starts almost immediately for me, using
ctrl-alt-del and then selecting "Task Manager".
FWIW, I'm not keen on all those apps which are Windows 8's default mode,
preferring the desktop view, and also use something called "Classic
Start Menu 4.0.6" to navigate to programs not on the desktop.

What's bothering me currently is ~93% idle time on windows 8.1 and

to start programs ( like task manager ) and many seconds of delays typing
even five characters into a search box.
It's beyond stupid.
I have nothing against brute force coding, nor against old languages or
whatever, but I do expect some level of understandable characteristics.
