Something I want to make clear here: You are measuring the number of task switched in Win32s (which depends on the rate at which each application empties its message queue in turn) and when you are running memory copies it slows this down – this makes sense to me. Am I missing something here? It seems like almost any API usage would radically change the number of times the current task is changed each second. Lee
