   Hi, guys! I am running gtk-gnutella 0.91.1 on Red Hat 8.0 and it is slower than slow. When I click button I might get a reaction thirty-seconds later. There are intermittent moments when it is responsive this is not the case.
   Someone metioned an initial hashing function of shared files, but ten minutes after starting the program doesn’t change anything. Thanx for any help.
