I just want to point that may be you have not considered all possible reasons for the speed loss of Xemacs against GNU. I yesterday did some testing, latest official GNU emacs with no-gnu0.4 vrs xemacs 21.4.17 no mule. While GNU emacs was on WARP speed all the time even for copying and moving a lot of msg between imap folder, xemacs was well slow. Uwe Brauer
