Michael, is it known why it's still so? I mean, apart from os-specific 
bindings, general i386 code should compile
identically (loops, searches and so on). Also linker for Windows is rewritten 
some time ago as long as I remember to be
fast enough.

I have no idea; I work almost exclusively with Linux for Lazarus/FPC. On the rare cases I compile something for windows, I notice that the same project still compiles less fast.
The IDE itself is a good testcase there :-)

But Florian or Jonas should be able to answer this question more precisely.

Michael.
