Hmmm... Well, actually Euphoria is pretty fast, you know that? The interpretter is extremely fast... But what does Rob do? He implements a billion and one run-time checks, making it as slow as it is today. However, this is not a bad thing. Sure run-time checks are cool. When you're coding an app. But once it's supposed to go out the door, who still gives a crap about the run-time checks being performed on your code? That's why Robert should add the following to Euphoria; without subscript_check without overflow_check If your app comes crashing down in flames, you turn it back on and see where the problem was. Simple as that. It's eighter that or keeping "without monthly_check" ontop of your Euphoria Interpreter code... Mike The Spike PS. Checks are nice. But an app that lies in the stores shouldn't contain debugging code. Especially if it's 30% slower because of it. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
