Hi,
I have a similar problem, not only gittering but it will read part of a
line, stop then read it over again and the response to the navigation keys
really sucks. While I am fairly satisfied with the recognition I don't much
like how it formats stuff either and I really wish it behaved more like a
Windows programme however this does not answer your question.
It all seems to have something to do with sharing the synth or perhaps the
keyboard. If however you unload JAWS things really begin to move along much
bettter. It doesn't seem to matter if you shut down jaws with insert+f4
before entering RUBY or alt-tab out of ruby then insert+f4 to close JAWS,
either way, once JAWS is shut down RUBY's performance immediately improves.
I doubt it is a memory thing, I have 128 MB on a P2 350 mHz machine, a
HP-6390C scanner.
If you have a hotkey assigned to bring up JAWS when you close RUBY it is all
pretty good.
Hope this is helpful, and best of luck and clear thinking on your exams.
