If you had the stuff in one file and now have it split in multiple files (which lead to multiple object files) you can sometimes gain some percentages by reordering the object files on the linker line. Or you make a file which somehow includes everything and compile just that. Whether the few percentages are worth that is up to you. HTH Sargon
