I would think that binutils built to handle pe-i386 targets would show the same behaviour on any host. I've attached a tar file containing an unstripped x86 cygstdc++.dll. For me, 'nm -l' on that is very slow, only managing to output a few symbols per second. Reverting 425bd9e1 makes it fast again. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
