Re: Very slow response using php.exe under windows9x

i'll explain better the problem, i'm using ScriptView to process some very simple php pages that will disposed on a distribution cd. The cd work very well on win2k but on win9x it's many times slower. The problem is that all our customer use win9x and on their machine, so i'm looking for a solution. Thanks Alessio. "Erik H.
