This used to be patched and work correctly with sun studio, as late as QT 4.4.3. Don't know what happened since the source repository was moved. You could look in ./configure's log and see if mmx/sse/sse2 are being detected. I serioulsy doubt the lack of sse or sse2 would cause general slowness. Contrary to popular belief, these specific instructions do not create wonders. --Stefan -- Stefan Teleman KDE e.V. stefan.teleman at gmail.com
