Dear Forum, Dear Paul Timmons,

Having downloaded Gap 4.9.3 I found there seems to be an issue with
computing orders of groups of greater than 1000 which were pretty immediate
in older versions.
Thank you for the report.

I looked through the (rewritten because of a lack of maintainer of the previous 
version) code for the Modified Todd-Coxeter that is used in this calculations 
and discovered a problem that leads to severe performance degradation in larger 
examples. A fix is submitted for inclusion in a future release.

Regards,

    Alexander Hulpke

adding? e. g. the presentation for M22 in the Atlas. F:=FreeGroup("a",
"b");a:=F. 1;b:=F.2;rels:=<relators of the group>;G:=F/rels;Order(G) ;
