Subject: Re: complains about the cygwin/gcc binaries
Date: Thu, 27 Jan 2011 19:37:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4D41C957.2000202@purdue.edu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <4D41C8F2.8030509@purdue.edu>

In the ROOT downloading website: 
http://root.cern.ch/drupal/content/production-versio
n-528
It says:
"Note that the performance of cygwin/gcc binaries is currently very 
poor; we only pro
vide this build as an unsupported toy. We strongly recommend to use the 
version above compiled with VC++. The ROOT team will not answer any 
messages related to problems with the win32gcc version"

What's the reason of the poor performance. Is there any way to improve that?

Thanks
--Wei
