Oh. I hope you mean that the startup time has become much too long over time, and not that this patch made it worse. I don't think that the patch has a noticable effect, neither positive nor negative. Except that it possibly improves the perception and makes it feel a bit faster. And that will further improve with progress info. What has slowed down fgfs in the last time was the migration to the new database formats -- not because they are read less effectively, but simply because they contain much more data. That's at least the impression that I got from valgrind (http://www.valgrind.org/) runs. m. _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
