Forgot to feed the hampster running your hard drive spindle? (Just a guess.) What is your processor/memory? I find Acrobat takes about a minute on my machine (P-IV/1.8 Centrino w/ 1GB RAM) which twice as long as Firefox, or OOo. It may simply be that the libraries needed aren't loaded and are taking time. -- Kai Ponte www.perfectreign.com Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government.

Hi, I'm using a laptop Lenovo z60m, with a Intel 1,8 GHz and 512 M. I guess it just the way it works. Anyway, I think that OOffice 2 loads much faster the version 1.

Eh? When starting it from KDE it takes 6 seconds for an initial run (just timed it) and 2-3 seconds for subsequent runs on my 2.5 year-old 1.4GHz PC with 700MB RAM and a vanilla IDE hard drive. Granted, if i load a big PDF it takes longer, but not a full minute. Starting OOo and loading a 121-page ODT takes about 15 seconds for me. The PDF of that same file takes about ... 8 seconds to load with acroread. Sounds like both your's and the OP's hamsters need feeding ;). -- ----- stephan@s11n.net http://s11n.net "...pleasure is a grace and is not obedient to the commands of the will." -- Alan W. Watts

Well... I just deleted my ".adobe" config dir and now loads must faster. Mystery solved? Lívio ----- Original Message ----- On Thursday 31 August 2006 00:56, PerfectReign wrote:

Hmm. I stand corrected. (It certianly isn't the first time.) I loaded a 100K PDF in four seconds on said laptop. I then loaded an issue of Tux Magazine - about 5MB - in three seconds. For some reason, I remember a week or two ago, having Adobe take eons to load.

I just loaded a 150K ODT in six seconds.

ROTFL I guess they're well fed. Trying this on my slower desktop with only 512MB, I got Adobe to load in ten seconds and OOo in seventeen seconds. (It wasn't even a measure of life...) -- Kai Ponte www.perfectreign.com time slips away...

It just occured to me that the long load times were prior to me permanantly killing that Beagle thing. It was constantly doing something in the background. Kind of reminds me of that stupid office index that used to load on MS computers back around office 97/2K days. I was always having to kill that indexing tool thing, too. -- k

Good move. Die Beagle Die! WTF is that POJ for anyway? What was wrong with the findutils? Microsoft has active indexing so Linux has to have active indexing? Why? It died quickly on my machines. Hardly a whimper. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen

You, Sir, are maligning my best friend. Charlie is my fourth Beagle, and due to the age of both him and myself, perhaps my last, but I love the old hound, even if he does occasionally need some deodorizing. I don't have the other problems. --doug
