Eu 2.5 Very slow - update

I tried running exw.exe ide.exw from the Win XP command line, and sure enough got the splash screen in 6 seconds or so. It still took ages for the rest to come up, but I'm not sure what that means..... I checked my .exw file associations - sure enough, linked to c:\euphoria\bin\exw.exe. I double clicked on ide.exw - and it took over a minute to get the splash screen and another couple to get running. Runs about the speed of an old XP machine. With the IDE running from the command line I tried executing a small program from it - and it took ages (tens of seconds) to come up. So, IMHO, it looks like the exw.exe doesn't like executing directly under XP, but is happier to run from within a DOS environment. Make what you will of it, but being in the UK it's time I went home. I'll look again in the morning for any comments... Andy
