Version: 2.6.2-2
Severity: normal
here it is a little benchmark session, comparing the time it takes
zenity to pop-up, and the times it takes to xemacs to load, load the
portable dump, run all initial code, display a frame and exit
in both cases, the tests were repeated to have everything in cache, and
results displayed are for the last tests
zenity uses TEN times the cpu used by xemacs (oh well, it's 11.79
times...)
