Thanks Sven, I was about to reply to Carol about her message but I won't bother now. I must admit that when I first read it I did a double take and thought "WTF, does Adobe pay this woman?" I'm sure she is trying to be helpful in her own way but given the poison pen she writes with this may not be a good thing. > Please don't get a wrong impression from Carol's reply.

I am not at all unhappy with GIMP's performance (using default settings) on Windows XP other than the fact that I have noticed a lag before the file chooser opens when using File|Save As. I am a developer myself and work on Windows, so I have GIMP on it for the odd occasions when I need to do something graphical at work. Because I don't use it much I haven't bothered trying to optimise it but I will try doing so to see what difference it makes. My comment that I didn't think available memory would impact the time to open the file chooser for Save As, revolves around the way I do this in my own programs. I do no processing before displaying the file chooser and if the GIMP behaves the same there is no reason for there to be a lag. If however, some processing is done before displaying the dialog then some delay might be expected.
