Just to be clear, my comment was pointing to explorer shell extension, specifically the overlay icons. The slowness in bring up the dialogs is a different issues, though it may be somehow related. > Actually even on my WXP machine (2.1 GHz P4) THG is not really fast... :( I wonder why. It feel okay on my 8-year-old AMD 1Ghz with 384MB RAM. The dialogs usually pop up in a second or two. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Tortoisehg-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/tortoisehg-discuss
