RE: [ROOT] execution speed of compiled programs using ROOT

Hi Thomas,

There is an unfortunate implementation quirk which pools until the creation of a TApplication object (in the gdk thread).  This problem will be fixed soon.

Cheers,
Philippe.

Hi Phillipe,

yes, that works for me too. Thanks a lot!
can you please explain to me what the problem is if there is no 
TApplication object?

to Valeri:
I'll post the benchmarks tonight ar tomorrow morning.
I just downloaded qt-root (it looks very promising), and I don't see any 
slowdown (as far as I checked) .
With qt-root it doesn't matter, wether I create this TApplication object 
or not.
Any idea, wath is different between these two versions? (qt-root 
3.05/05  root-win32gdk 3.05/07)

again thanks to all
continue the good work
Thomas Nisius
