Mmm.. 4.45s to complete and log all make actions (C++ gnu g++) 0.11s to complete and log all make actions (Pascal Free Pascal) we _are_ _compiling_ it faster ;) and 132,656 kB vs 127,684 kB memory, we're actually _better_ than them ;) and 2383 vs 2106 code length (well they're better here). Maybe /usr/local/src/fpc-2.4.2.i386-linux/bin/fpc -FuInclude/fpascal -XXs -Oppentiumm -Cppentiumm -O3 -Cfsse2 -oFPASCAL_RUN knucleotide.fpascal-2.pas the command line also is the answer ? (is the Q6600 64bit ?) also c++ code sports things like cpu affinity, while we don't... or they try to _parallelize_ it behind the machines' back ? Hard to say. (Not that I know much about c++ generally) :) Lukasz [...] > Bernd _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
