> It would be interesting to known time on your XP boxes. Thanks for your interest and for the test program! My results are: Elapsed microseconds: 15000606 Elapsed seconds : 15.000607 rc : 1 This is for both my standard and tweaked physical machines mentioned earlier [0], as well as a newly setup virtual box. Note that all my systems are 32-bit. [0] https://www.mail-archive.com/fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org/msg25001.html A virtual box (32-bit) to reproduce the behavior can be setup quickly: * Download "Windows XP Mode" [1] * The downloaded file is an SFX archive containing a VHD * Start the OS from the VHD with any virtualization tool [1] https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=8002 I'm (still) aware that this is not an important problem, but I find it interesting. I have some old development tools only available on my XP machines (older versions of Visual Studio still providing Resource Editors, to name it). Given the portability of Fossil, I was happy it worked on Windows XP, but waiting 15 seconds for `fossil ui' cools down my joy a little bit ;-) --Florian _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
