This works for me. This copy had been running for about a day. I restarted it some time yesterday to see if that would help the speed; it didn't. The memory cache was set to 4096 KB and the disk cache was set at 50000 KB. Clearing the caches didn't appear to help, nor did setting them to memory = 1024 KB and disk = 4096 KB and then clearing them again.
