Hello All Just doing some tests of REBOL 2.2 floating point speed. On a 450 MHz P2 running Win98, at the console I get: >> start: now/time a: 9.0 b: 0.5 loop 1000 [loop 10000 [c: a ** b]] now/time - start == 0:00:20 The overhead for the empty loop is about 1 second. I am interested in what others get with different platforms and processors, or even functionally identical loop in other scripting languages. On my machine, REBOL is slightly faster than VBScript for the floating point, but the VBScript loop overhead is about 6 seconds. Cheers Larry
