Guessing ? I'm pretty sure what the problem causes for me. - I can reproduce the problem * on two different PCs, * with two different types of slow filesystems. - I can solve the problem by removing four lines of code (in FileName::==()) that were there to solve 'rare' cases (so disabling those does not change the behaviour in most cases). - I've shown a network access graph that supports the hypothesis of accessing the file system. - Bug 5705 shows exactly the same conditions and result. >Jmarc Vincent
