We're talking a matter of seconds at the most and fractions of seconds

Actually, there's some great stuff in the archive that demonstrates 
simply that EUPHORIA can be the basis for most programming tasks.

Yes, but it's in the shop. It told me that the Cowboys would win the 
Superbowl and that my precious Amiga would be the top platform in 2003.
