Ok, I assumed Delphi was not faster than C++ Builder and they used the same
backend compiler. Apparently not, then? From my own experience I can tell that
VC is 25%-30% faster than C++ Builder for all code that I have ever written. But
I use an older version, but I have heard the newer ones are not faster. It is
great btw, even if you use it as a straight console mode C++ compiler. Noway
that I debug in VC.

Bas.
