Re: Extreme slowdown on Debian stable

[Fred Kiefer]

It would be very interesting to see where the time actually gets spend. You 
could try to run some GNUstep application, preferably Ink,  monitored by 
valgrind (actually the callgrind variant). Than send me the resulting file to 
analyse it with kcachegrind.
