IPSA's APL shareware is definitely not lightning fast. On the other hand,
it is quite respectful with a 12MHz 0-wait AT. Even better on a 386.
If it's your daily tool, you may want a bit more than that. If you're
an occasional user, or a student (or teacher) in a Prog Lang class, you
can only appreciate IPSA, particularly if you consider alternatives
(at the UofMN we're currently using Purdue's APL/11 on a Unix box).
