I'm sorry that I don't have freebsd on my system to do more testing but I'm pretty sure it's the ath0 interface that's causing the issue. When the interface is down limewire starts normally but when it's up it takes about 3 minutes to load. I have tried upgrading to stable but it's still the same issue. I will try to reinstall to do some more testing.

I guess this is due to different strategies for memory management in the implementation of Java VM. It depends on what machines you are running java - on slower ones, or such with less memory, the time for loading java vm, and the time for allocation of memory for bigger apps may vary quite a lot, but 3 minutes looks like more problem of slow dns resolving, if many peers are connecting to you, etc.. I suppose this is not related to problems with driver, but anything is possible, just better testing and more investigations can prove that.. Cheers, Emil
