turning off</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

your ctrl-home one sounds more like windows : very often the first use of any

<DIV><SPAN class=093322018-08112004><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi
All.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=093322018-08112004><FONT face=Arial size=2>Been meaning to
bring this up for ages, but never seem to remember.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=093322018-08112004><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have been
experiencing delays with the D7 IDE.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=093322018-08112004><FONT face=Arial
size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=093322018-08112004><FONT face=Arial size=2>Things like, when
I open a project, then go to a section of code, press enter, and try to type,
I cant, because Delphi goes off and starts reading madly off my
HD.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=093322018-08112004><FONT face=Arial size=2>OR for instance, I
just went back to my D7 IDE that has been open all night, pressed CTRL+HOME
and took, oh 2-3 seconds to actually process the command !</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=093322018-08112004><FONT face=Arial size=2>It does this, then
its fine.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=093322018-08112004><FONT face=Arial
size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=093322018-08112004><FONT face=Arial size=2>Then there are
occasions when it takes ages for the code complete popup to popup. Once again
reading of the HD madly.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=093322018-08112004><FONT face=Arial
size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=093322018-08112004><FONT face=Arial size=2>So you might be
thingking...ah he has a low spec machine ! But not really. Its an Intel 3GHz
(hyper threading) with a 160GB SATA drive (nice and fast) with 100GB free (and
a big sawp file) and 1GB of Ram.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=093322018-08112004><FONT face=Arial size=2>So thats why I am
puzzled at the delays I get.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=093322018-08112004><FONT face=Arial size=2>It seems to do it
once, then its ok. Its strange.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=093322018-08112004><FONT face=Arial
size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=093322018-08112004><FONT face=Arial size=2>Anyone else
experenced these sorts of issues?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
