Yes sorry. Strange, AMD Athlon XP 2800+ should not be so terribly slow. Something slows things down in your machine. > the first time, when i noted seeing the two windows pop up as the data was > retrieved, it was around 5+ seconds... If you actually see the windows, it means calling "fpc -i" and "fpc -h" takes a long time. After that the GUI control creation takes more time. >> This problem can be solved also by loading the options in a background >> thread. > yes, that would work and shouldn't be noticeable... unless one goes directly > to those options which is rather doubtful... It helps only loading the options, not generating the GUI. It would be interesting to know which operation is slower in your computer. Out of curiosity, how long does starting Lazarus take there?
