I am also experiencing the same slowness using the default system.fvwm2rc configuration file on an Ultra 60 with Solaris 8 and the latest patches from patchpro.
I've tried both gcc 3.2.3 and Sun's forte 7 C compiler with the same result; 2.5.7 is fast; both 2.5.8 and 2.5.9 are dog slow by comparison. $ fvwm-config -v 2.5.9 $ fvwm-config -s gettext gtk gdk-imlib iconv perllib png readline rplay shape shm sm xpm The make still fails on the debian directory was well. I have to remove the debian directory from the SUBDIRS variable of the top level Makefile for the compile to complete successfully; -- snip -- Making all in debian make: Fatal error in reader: Makefile, line 333: Badly formed macro assignment Current working directory /home/dp130708/source/fvwm-2.5.9/fvwm-2.5.9/debian *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `all-recursive' Current working directory /home/dp130708/source/fvwm-2.5.9/fvwm-2.5.9 *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `all' Current working directory /home/dp130708/source/fvwm-2.5.9/fvwm-2.5.9 *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `all' $ cat -n Makefile | ggrep -B 5 -A 5 333 328 fi; \ 329 (cd $$subdir && $(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) $$local_target) \ 330 || case "$$amf" in *=*) exit 1;; *k*) fail=yes;; *) exit 1;; esac; \ 331 done && test -z "$$fail" 332 tags-recursive: 333 list='$(SUBDIRS)'; for subdir in $$list; do \ 334 test "$$subdir" = . || (cd $$subdir && $(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) tags); \ 335 done 336 337 ETAGS = etags 338 ETAGSFLAGS = $ gmake --version GNU Make version 3.79.1, by Richard Stallman and Roland McGrath.
