You shouldn't need to put the php_gd2.dll in your system dir, simply open your php.ini file (Usually c:\windows\php.ini or c:\winnt\php.ini) and change the extension_dir to point to your PHP 4 directory\extensions, Example: extension_dir = "c:\php4\extensions" Then uncomment the extension=php_gd2

You can also use something like Turck MMCache to accelerate the scripts. There is a class at http://pear.php.net for benchmarking PHP scripts and you can use a web client that times how long it takes to download a page. I would look at template caching and Turck MMCache to increase performance. j
