Dear Jordi,

Thank you for your e-mail.

I apologize for not having sent the bug report yet. I have loads of things
to do, but I'm planning to send the report some time next week.

Here I have some figures of how slow Octave 3.6.2 is in my system compared
with the previous version 3.2.4. For the same script the performance is as
follows:

Version 3.6.2: 1514 seconds,
version 3.2.4: 132 seconds.

That is, the newer version 3.6.2 finishes the calculation in about 25
minutes, whereas the previous version 3.2.4 finishes in only two minutes
and few senconds!

Although it is not important for the bug report, I should say that my code
calculates sensitivities of a particular type interferometer. It
propagates a laser beam through a set of optics and calculates intensities
on photodiodes. This implies several scripts calling other scripts and all
those must be included on the bug report.

Thanks!

Fabian
