    Are you talking about software written in Qt and run on Windows ? If so, i have used far older machines than yours and they run just as fast as any other app. Absolutely no difference.

    ps: nobody will bite you.

    Could this be caused by the display resolution then? How come then that even when windows is small the effect is sometimes noticeable? I would really like to solve this.

    You might try compiling with the microsoft compiler instead of MinGW (but this requires that you recompile Qt). It probably generates a better (faster?) code on Windows.

    However bear in mind that shooting blind is not the best way to fix a problem. It might be better to check the actual usage of the cpu by the application and finding the bottleneck for your system using dedicated tools. I've seen Qt working on far inferior machines very well - there seems to be something broken on your system. An 1.5G Athlon is not a bad machine. Graphics is probably more important here, maybe that's your bottleneck.
    Your biological and technological distinctiveness will be added to our own. Resistance is futile.

    Please ask Qt related questions on the forum and not using private messages or visitor messages.
