You should try this again using the SAME compiler version on both machines. gcc 2.95 is known to run circles around 3.x on the same machine, as 3.x had a full API change and is now waaay slower than gcc 2.95, though it produces faster and smaller binaries. - -- ________________________________________________ Olivier Reisch [EMAIL PROTECTED] TuxPPC Site Director http://www.tuxppc.org The number one user resource for Linux on PPC.
