Well, it has to actually backtrack to make a difference; if there's no need to, it won't differ. But when there is need to, it takes longer. That's why it has been described as dynamic; you are either affected by a lot of backtracking or you don't, seems you are on the lucky side now. -- With kind regards, Tom Wijsman (TomWij) Gentoo Developer E-mail address : tom...@gentoo.org GPG Public Key : 6D34E57D GPG Fingerprint : C165 AF18 AB4C 400B C3D2 ABF0 95B2 1FCD 6D34 E57D
