If you are having slow startup on windows that could be cos you have a virus checker enabled which will be trying to check all your class libraries ..
it should be a lot faster on linux or with virus checking disabled on windows (if you are allowed!)

Hi Max As long as the data is on the remote server, the response time would be the same. The registry file with correct params can be found here: http://cvs.sanger.ac.uk/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/biomart-perl/conf/projectReg istry.xml?rev=1.2&only_with_tag=MAIN&view=markup The registry has enteries for multiple marts, you can remove the ones which are not of your interest. Also, the registry params are for Ensembl 41. You can simply FIND-REPLACE 41 with 42. Should you need any further assistance, feel free to write.
