Subject: wxruby2 problems

Hello,

I've recently installed wxruby2 (version 1.9.4) from a precompiled
mswin32 gem. It seems to work fine, and the samples in the
distribution all work, but I have a couple of peculiar problems:

1) When I package a trivial wxruby script with rubyscript2exe, the
executable is huge - 8.5 MB. With previous versions of wxruby (prior
to wxruby2, I think) it was much smaller. Less than 3 MB. Is this how
much the new wxruby takes, or am I doing something wrong ?

2) [warning: this is bizarre!]  While running a script with a wxruby
GUI, my mouse (trackball, actually) becomes much slower. It's
configured to be quite fast because I have a large script, but slows
down (by a factor of 2, at least) while the script is running. When
the script exits, the cursor regains its original speed. This does not
happen with simple ruby scripts (those without wxruby)

Please help,
Eli
