Hi all,
On Windows XP, I've been running into the issue where just starting the octave
process takes several minutes to complete. During this time, CPU usage is
100%, but no other activity seems to be occurring (ie, no disk access, no
network access.) Using Process Explorer doesn't show any open files during
this time. RAM stays at 16,000 K most of the time but occasionally drops to ~
14,100 K for a very brief periods of time. After a few minutes the process
finally spits out the name & copyright info and from then on appears to
function normally and quickly.
I've reproduced this with both 3.4 and 3.6 and on more than 1 XP machine. With
3.6 I even used a fresh install of XP and Octave within Virtualbox and the
problem remained, even with this virgin environment.
Any help or ideas to fix this would be greatly appreciated,
Thank-you
