The test I made is simply to validate one of the sources of the program, which involves the parsing of several other files, part included by "require_once", part included automatically by "__autoload()": > phpl stdlib\it\icosaedro\lint\Where.php ...(report here)... Overall test results: 0 errors, 0 warnings. Total execution time: 1 min 51.821 s from which the time of 111 s reported in my original message. The same, exact PHP script under Linux takes only a fraction of the time, and I cannot figure out why. -- Regards, ___ /_|_\ Umberto Salsi \/_\/ www.icosaedro.it
