| Problem
|
| On the first call of a function in a function file, there is a 40s wait
| with one CPU (of 4) running at 99% utilisation.
| Is this normal?
No.
| The loadpath looks OK, and there are only the files from the

|
| Example:
|
| cru200:33%octave
| Octave, version 2.0.12 (mips-sgi-irix6.2).

I can't reproduce this problem on any of the systems I use. Is there
some way on IRIX systems to trace system call activity, so we might be
able to find out where it is spending most of the time?
Thanks,
