This is really *NOT* *PROVEN*!!!! I have Warp on my TP755C and it
runs great. For a short time I installed Works to have a look at
it, and performance did not change a bit!!! Then I deleted it, without
ever de-registering the WPS classes (because I don't need works as much
as the disk space it uses), and performance is still as snappy and
speedy as ever!!!

On the other hand, I have Warp on my Desktop (installed with new
formatting of the partition) and never even looked at Works there,
much less installed it, and it is slow as a snail (which 2.11 wasn't on
the same system).

It seems that Works causes some performance degradation for some users
(definitely not all!) which may be regained by proper removal of all
of its components. But the extreme slowness that some systems show
does not seem to be related to Works and must be due to some other bug.
