I built two new Windows 7 Pro desktops. Same motherboard, same Intel processor, same version of Windows, very similar machines. One machine is at my home office, the other is at a off-site location.
Both have C++ Builder XE8 installed. On my home office PC, my program is visible about 5 seconds after pressing F9 (run). On the off-site PC, the startup time is closer to 1 minute. And when I close the app it is also very slow, about 30 seconds or more.
The source code is identical on both PC's. The build time (Build all) is very close on both PC's, the PC's both run very fast while running other XE8 programs, just this one program is causing problems.
I'm not sure where to start looking for a problem. I have disabled AVAST, this had no effect. There are no other anti-virus or anti-malware programs. So what's the best way to track down this issue?
I assume you're running in the debugger, off the local hard drive, and
haven't done anything (like code signing) to modify the executable in a
post-build step?
Have you tried running Process Monitor? It should be able to tell you
what the program is doing at the point when the slowdown occurs. You
could even run it on both computers, export the results, then compare
them to see what the difference is.
