You can >join the club if you desire. :-) --------- Try setting only 1MB of Hash Size and it will tip your Scale!! You need to try and not take this test so seriously, but with just a grain of salt!! Use the formula as it makes more sense than those silly tests that were supposed to be used for the Fritz program. Fritz fills up the hash table 10- times faster than Hiarcs7.32 so you need alot less MB than fritz!!! ------- Terry
