Impressive. I get the following timings for Eclipse RC2, gij 3.4 (CVS HEAD, verifier disabled), starting up and using the mouse to select the exit item as soon as possible (it then takes a couple of seconds to "Save the workspace"): Complete fresh start (two splash screens): real 3m41.889s user 3m28.310s sys 0m3.320s Second startup (one splash screen): real 2m44.068s user 2m33.670s sys 0m2.430s This is on an Athlon XP 1.4Ghz with 768MB. The bottleneck seems to be class loading and exception handling. > For reference, starting eclipse.exe (using Sun's JRE 1.4.1) takes 11 > seconds. Nah. Proprietary implementations don't count. I assume your timings are with Mono on Wine. None of that proprietary MS stuff I hope :) Cheers, Mark _______________________________________________ Classpath mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/classpath
