Do you have some guesstimate about what the performance numbers are?

No guesstimates, but it's generally very bad.

Especially when there's some corporate "security" software in the loop. And that's the case you have to really code against.

You already realize it's your security software that's slowing your system calls. Blaming it on the registry makes no sense. It's like blaming HN for being slow because your ISP is slow.

Not mine, but the actual customers'. "Works for me" is not going too far.

Besides, registry is not a rocket even on a clean system.
