Yes, I know the program is usually slow, but what about when it is unusually slow?I'm wondering why you feel the need to compile it in the first place? Does the precompiled version run as slowly for you?
I've got OpenOffice 1.0.1 compiled as of yesterday morning on my Gentoo 1.4rc* system with Portage 2.0.45, GCC 3.2.1, Glibc 2.3.1, and Blackdown JDK 1.4.1beta, kernel 2.5.51, and it was compiled under 2.5.50bk5. My hardware is Athlon 1.4, EPoX 8K5A3+ (VIA KT333) mainboard, 512MB PC3200 DDR from Corsair's XMS series. The only reason I'm using the 2.5.xx series of kernels is that they seem to have the best support for my Highpoint 374 controller.
The program loads the main window, and spends a good minute or two drawing it. It spends the time redrawing it every time I switch to another app. I've never gotten far enough to be able to type anything because it is sooo sluggish. I've tried setting the priority on the process to as low as -13 or so, and nothing helps. Anything I might try to make the beast useable? The prog. worked on my previous (because it got hosed) Gentoo install, where it was compiled with Blackdown 1.3.1, GCC 3.2, and Glibc 2.2.5.
