Hi all,

I've made me a mandelbrot fractal generator in lingo.
I use setpixel, a 320 by 200 points stage, and an 8 bit palette.
I do the setPixel ops on a variable wich i have initialised as an image.

However a mandelbrot with scale set to 0.02 wich fits the 320x200 image
takes 30 secs to render.
I'm doing this on a mac G4 450 with 512 Mb RAM.

Is there a faster way to plot an image than using setpixel??

Is there a line execution speed difference between movie and stage scripts?

which one is faster - a*a or power (a,2) ?
(In c it's the latter, but I am not so sure about lingo.)

TIA,

Chris.
