[GRASS-user] Grass too slow/freeze. Scripts works only on Qgis

Hi all
I got a great problem: i can't use Grass because it's slow and often freeze.
If i do some simple operation (v/r.in, remove ecc...) one time it did it in 0secs but 9 times it takes 1min and 30 secs. always.
But the great problem happens when i launch some scripts.
i look inside the task manager and i saw that g.remove, v.extract, v.to.points, and more are on but frozen. If i stop them throunght task manager, the script restarts (sometimes crash because it didn't complete the operation).

Same happens when i start Grass inside Qgis with the shell.
But if i run the script on Qgis it works normally.

i got Windows 8 and quadcore pc, but around i didn't find any problem with my config.

Tnks

Could it be that network traffic is causing this?
What does the CPU plot say in the task manager?

(such a problem has AFAIK never been reported in the past years)

Perhaps you get any idea here:
http://superuser.com/questions/464112/how-to-measure-the-performance-of-a-pc-running-windows-8
to find out what really causes the problem.

One more thing: do you have any Python except that of GRASS installed
on the system?
