I run into some performance issues with some X win apps, like Netscape (few versions) and XEmacs. Netscape Browser and XEmacs take about 2-3 minutes to load from the time I fire them off. Is there something that I should fine tune in order to bring up performance of these two apps? 2-3 minutes loading time sounds very drastic to me! On the other hand graphic package GIMPS starts right up, 10 -15 seconds after I launch it. Any suggestions/comments? Thanks. ------- Aleksandar Obradovic e-mail: alex@montenegro.com http://www.montenegro.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
