2.6.0 is now quite old -- it would be interesting to test this on the current git master. > Could anyone tell me what this difference comes from or give me any hint? There are lots of changes between those two releases, and we don't in general track performance at all, so a regression is not very surprising to me. If you wanted to try to identify what caused it you could try a git bisect. thanks -- PMM
