Ping localhost times here: > > [implode:dg] ping localhost > PING localhost.root.com (127.0.0.1): 56 data bytes > 64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=0.158 ms > 64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=0.163 ms That obviuosly depends on CPU & speed. I get the following times 386DX/25 1.580 ms 486dx2/66 0.560 ms P5/133 0.244 ms also, has the original poster tried the obvious, i.e. cache enabled, turbo switch in high speed position, etc ?
