Sounds like you are running in the interactive mode; ie opened python
session interactively in a command prompt and typed
import clr
In which case;
help(clr) # would yield:
Help on module clr:
NAME
clr
FILE
(built-in)
DATA
AddReference = <CLRModuleFunction 'AddReference'>
FindAssembly = <CLRModuleFunction 'FindAssembly'>
ListAssemblies = <CLRModuleFunction 'ListAssemblies'>
getPreload = <CLRModuleFunction 'getPreload'>
setPreload = <CLRModuleFunction 'setPreload'>
The Preload flag is set to True in interactive mode. Its function is to
load the entire namespace of the default assemblies into the
interpreter's namespace (mostly for debugging).
Please confirm that
clr.setPreload(False)
clears up your concern.
Thank you

Hi,
I'm accessing a database through a .NET DLL and I noticed that the
initial open/load function is taking 20 times as long in Python.NET 2.6
as it is in my Python.NET 2.5.
When I went to check on what 2.5 version I was using I found a newer one
on sourceforge; well using pythonnet-2.0-alpha2-clr2.0_py25.zip is
giving the same slow speeds as the 2.6 & 2.7 versions I was trying. The
2.5 that is giving me fast times (0.8 - 1.2 seconds) versus (18-24
seconds) I got a few years ago in a package called
'pythonnet-2.0-alpha2.zip' that contained directories for 2.4 & 2.5,
UCS2 & UCS4; the Python.Runtime.DLL is dated 6 Sep 2007.
Any idea why the speed difference? And is it possible to get back to the
fast version for 2.6 & 2.7?
I'm running Windows 7, 32 bit.
Thanks,
Craig.
