The gcc-3.x used in FreeBSD 5.x is much slower than the older one used in FreeBSD-4.x. This is mostly because the compiler does a harder job in optimising. All in all my Impression was that alpha binaries run faster if compiled with gcc-3. Since your 164SX should have an BWX enabled CPU you might want to try compiling everything with CPU type set. Maybe that would help with your phpSysInfo Problem. If you could name a simpler to analyse case, which feels too slow, things would be easier. -- B.Walter BWCT http://www.bwct.de bernd@bwct.de info@bwct.de
