Message: [QUOTE="Frew Schmidt, post: 4563621"] The exchange rates are not actually the reason for the slow start-up Thanks for the tips! I'll look into it for sure. I think that the stuff I am doing is simple enough that I can do it by hand (you know, minute = 60, hour = 60 * minute, use jurian dates, etc.) I don't know if something in my setup is broken or something, but the vast majority of the examples in the Doc didn't work at all. Here's what happened: NameError: undefined local variable or method `s' for main:Object from (irb):2NameError: undefined local variable or method `s' for main:Object from (irb):3NameError: undefined local variable or method `feet' for main:Object from (irb):4NameError: undefined local variable or method `yd' for main:Object from (irb):5NameError: undefined local variable or method `sq_yd' for main:Object from (irb):6NoMethodError: undefined method `L' for main:Object from (irb):7NameError: undefined local variable or method `kg' for main:Object from (irb):8NameError: undefined local variable or method `m' for main:Object from (irb):9NameError: undefined local variable or method `km' for main:Object from (irb):10NameError: undefined local variable or method `km' for main:Object from (irb):11NameError: undefined local variable or method `twd' for main:Object from (irb):12 If I did like, 1.bit + 1.byte it would work, but the examples above all failed apparently.
