When you say "couple" of seconds do you mean "2" as is the meaning of couple? Then the previous OS took 1 second or sub-second? How did you measure? Are you using the same version of java to compile? Same vendor/version? If you want to "really" solve your problem you are going to have to go deeper into the analysis. Running around trying get a faster X window manager when you don't know for sure if that is the problem may be a fruitless endeavor. For all you know you may have disk I/O conflicts. At this point you will only get generalizations as to how one *may* go about improving performance. -- "An opinion is like an asshole - everybody has one." - Clint Eastwood as Harry Callahan, The Dead Pool - 1988. -- Shrike-list mailing list Shrike-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/shrike-list
