I've sometimes thought about this issue in the past - you're doing a lot of things that Windows does during its boot process when you load an application. Is there a way (or would it be a handy feature for there to be a way) to "preload" this, like running a wineserver process (if that's what handles a lot of the overhead) as a kind of daemon at login or something? Just my â0.02's worth :) Stephen _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.winehq.org/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
