I can try to reproduce this on another machine (much slower CPU, better - although still quite old - nvidia graphics card) if that would be useful. --- jcupitt@xxxxxxxxx wrote: > Hi Bobby, > > On 4/3/07, Bobby Jack <bobbykjack@xxxxxxxxxxx> > wrote: > > Can you include some details as to how you > gathered > > these metrics?
