I have a problem and still can't find a solution for it.

I have a Process when running on P3 it takes 18mins.
When ran on a P4 it takes 58mins.

The process was created on VB6 SP5.

Now in the coding thaere are some coding still for the 16bit version. Can that part cause the problem? (Thunking problem)

Thank You
Steve

Interesting topic for a music forum. However, I am a Computer Programmer by profession and I do a great deal of VB development. What you'll want to look for is 16-BIT API calls in the project code. Make sure that you replace them with 32-BIT API calls. It sounds as if your VB component is suffereing from a bandwidth problem.

Aside from the above, check the project's options and focus on the performance speed, rather than the compile size/speed. Also check the optimize for pentium radiobutton.
