Hi list,
I noticed that my inkscape is too slow with a AMD 1.2, Win98 256Mb memory.
This configuration is ok ?
No, Inkscape will run in that configuration but it requires several hundred megs of memory in practice, so with less than about 512M in your system, Inkscape will cause your system to swap to disk a lot, which will give you very poor performance.
On Pentium 4 512Mb memory is quite diferent.
Any suggestion to customize inkscape to make it better ?
I don't know if there are any tunable parameters to make it run better in low memory configurations, but if you absolutely must have this, you may want to try an earlier version, such as Inkscape 0.35, which may have less advanced memory demands.
