The documentation says "Minimum operating systems Windows NT 4.0, Windows 95". Could it be some early issue that it was not available on 9x? Do you mean that the overhead is too heavy? I never noticed that on my old pc. I would expect the heavy calls (to the OS to be about the same), but I do not know this at all. Can you explain?
