That was related to the XML-Implementation of Native XML. XML-Functionality in Delphi is based on MS-XML which is pretty slow. So for the next release, all XML-based stuff will be faster (loading and saving games, startup in general, etc.).

And btw. I finally got Lazarus set up under a current Ubuntu. Actually I hate the Ubuntu user interface (worst UI design I've ever seen) and getting Lazarus installed there almost drove me made (in the end I had to install 10 ! packages), but it's now all set up and I'll soon start getting it to compile there
