Is it just me or has Tetris gotten slower with almost every release.  The first version
of Tetris to use Machine language routines was lightning fast a very challanging (probably
to challenging).  Now as the program gets more bells and whisels it seems to be as slow
as the original non-ML versions.  I hope that this does not seem too much like a complaint.
I have been very pleased with Tetris and the work done by the authors.  I am just
pointing out that if it were easy to run it faster it might be more challenging.
