Just a few minutes ago, I tried the RTV again just to see (on an HTML message), and it was very fast, no apparent delay! I had a whole bunch of other apps open (MSVC++, Dreamweaver, my own app under development, text editor...) at the time. I was excited, thinking the problem had been solved (I just dl'ed Beta/30), and rebooted my machine to check. After reboot, it was back to being as slow as ever, and still is slow now, even after I've opened all the same apps again. This says two things to me: 1) it's not an inherent problem with the system just being too slow, since it was perfectly fast there for a few minutes, and 2) that it seems it's actually faster when a lot of system resources are being consumed. (I think I remember someone on this list mentioning the same thing a while back...) But it's hard for me to reproduce the change in delay, so I can't be precise about the conditions. - Paul -- Using The Bat! v1.54 Beta/30 S/N FCADE557 on Windows 98 4.10 Build 67766446 A +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Paul A. | NCBI / NIH Thiessen | [EMAIL PROTECTED] +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ -- _________________________________________________________ Archives : http://tbbeta.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Wish List : http://wish.thebat.dutaint.com BugTraq : https://bt.ritlabs.com/
