Ok, now I use the CVS version and it is really faster, fast enough for my examples. Thanks.

But I now I have some other questions. In the CVS version the output 
of some routines are different form the old ones.

So I get a 'strange' result from 'rnfidealup'. How to interprete this result? 

I did an idealfactor with the result from rnfidealup and this works fine in the old version.
But now, that isn't possible. Why?

Thanks

cheers
