Rather interesting comparison - so 486s eat 030s.  Too bad about the
640K though 8-).  I run up against it far too often at work, TGFU (thank
god for Un*x).  Even my 2.5 Meg ST does better, w/o expensive third
party memory allocation libraries 8-).  Now if only TOS and DOS could
get away from 8.3 file names.

HA,HA,HO,HO....... and he wanted to speed it up 8-) 8-).
The original is in assembler and C - right Darek?? 
GFA Basic *was* a lifesaver for me, but..... this?!
