please post your code. Your machine specs do not indicate a problem. I will try to recreate it.

Nope not normal. Usually when in debugmode, everything takes a bit longer. But not that long... :) Also make sure you use v1.10 + syncmods!

The only things that could slow it down that much is Creating losts of Types ie 1,000,000 at the Start of your code then applying functions to them ect also loading in two many sound and musics samples at once When they are bunched at the start this will slow it down

This problem happens on all demos of the registered version 1.10 and in the unreg version 1.09.
