Menachem,

Try using the System Monitor and watch Page Faults. I noticed some stuff using Word97 automation taking about 50 seconds on my Win95 machine, we installed it on the client's NTWS machine and it ran in under 10 seconds, on a slower machine no less. Watching PageFaults on my Win95 box was up in the 1k range, I didn't try doing sysmon on the NT box.

>Well, it gets curioser and curioser. I just duplicated the problem with a simple program which basically dumps records into a file. I am getting approximate three times faster throughput on a Win NT 4.0 workstation versus a Win 98 workstation that is sitting right next to it. To compare,
