But it kind-a iratete me since I haven't seen this in all those what is different in ruby 1.9 since 1.8.6 documents I have been reading. It was not even trivial to find the solution. It's my first day and I was suppose to love it. But almost none of my programs work as before. I have just realized that reading file takes about 50x times more on my Vista then in 1.8.6. (on XP also). Lets go bug reporting. by TheR -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
