So does the other tools I have checked at that time.
But I don't know if this fixes the problem of slowness reported. A little test Pete may do is just as I have written in the former email: try to save the big files that cause troubles where he prefers and run Kompare on them directly from the command line.
Is kompare faster? If no probably the 'pipe' technique will not solve the problem and shrinks the applicability of the external diff launcher to tools that handle diffs directly.
