Hi -

I've tried the following (single) lines in my etc/hosts file -

127.0.0.1	localhost
	OR
127.0.0.1	zeropoint   // where zeropoint is what is reported by hostname
	OR
127.0.0.1	zeropoint	localhost

and noticed very little if any improvement in xemacs load speed? I'm probably
making a silly mistake, but it's not immediately obvious to me what it is.
Ideas?
