Dag-namit! CGF beat me to the punch. :-) I would only add that there are two "set_flag" routines. One in path.cc, the other in fhandler.h/fhandler.cc. They don't do allot. Just setting flags really (who would have guessed? ;-) ) and no one has fiddled with these in the 1.5.10 time-frame. It's hard to imagine that either of these routines are what's responsible for all the time you see lost. CGF is right (who would have guessed! ;-) ). Debugging the internals a little bit would be time well spent, especially given the alternative you describe. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
