Only because something has been around for a while, even for years, it doesn't automatically loose "experimental" status. It does when it has been extensively and successfully debugged, verified and tested, and no reservations regarding run-time stability or userspace interface stability remain. Is this true for these profiling options? -- Stefan Richter -=====-=-=== -=== -=-=- http://arcgraph.de/sr/
