WinUAE 2.3.3 takes double time to boot then 2.3.2

[AmigaSurfer]

On my System WinUAE 2.3.3 boots ugly slower than 2.3.2.

I measured the time from pressing the Start button until the desktop background get's vissible and the limpid clock reappears.

WinUAE 2.3.2:
1. Boot:           10.6s
2. Boot with logs: 10.5s
 
WinUAE 2.3.3:
1. Boot:           20.4s
2. Boot with logs: 21.1s

The log files are attached.

Here are the P96Speed results:

Some results are ugly slow with WinUAE 2.3.3.

Anything special in startup-sequence like p96refresh etc?

[AmigaSurfer]

Hello Toni,
all p96-hacks in the startup-sequence are disabled.
I have the impression, the booting will slow down at this moment when the workbench is drawing. The icons at the workbench appears one by one much slower than with WinUAE 2.3.2. Then it takes some additional time until the AmiDock appears.
Maybe this have to do with some ugly slow results of P96Speed. See above.

I also have encountered this bug, in earlier WinUAE versions too.
It seems random when it happens.

I think it is related to JIT, maybe... it lags when it tries to cache in the first part and then speeds up loading WB.

I think disabling JIT has helped this lag.

[AmigaSurfer]

No, this is not a random bug at my system. WinUAE 2.3.2 boots at all time fast. WinUAE 2.3.3 or 2.3.3beta6 boots at all time slow. The lag seems to begin when the workbench is drawing.

Does both D3D and DirectDraw modes have same slowdown? Also attach your configuration file, thanks. (My P96Speed results look normal)

[Schlachtwerk]

My system have this Slowdows after i left a WHDload game, then is the Performance more than poor only a Reset will help.

[AmigaSurfer]

Hello Toni,

DirectDraw Mode has no slowdown.

WinUAE 2.3.2:     Direct3D   DirectDraw
1. Boot:           10.6s       10.0s
2. Boot with logs: 10.5s        9.9s

WinUAE 2.3.3:     Direct3D   DirectDraw
1. Boot:           20.4s        9.8s
2. Boot with logs: 21.1s       10.0s

I thought maybe the large screen resolution of 1920x1600 could cause the problem. So I done one boot with screen resolution 1280x1024 with WinUAE 2.3.3 and Direct3D. The boot needs 17.0s. So still 7s more than 2.3.2 with 1920x1600.

My config file is attached.
