More often than not, you can speed up a Perl program considerably by improving the algorithm you're using. You may not need to drop into C. Perhaps you can show the code in question. Otherwise I'd suggest Inline::C. -- Mark Thomas [EMAIL PROTECTED] Internet Systems Architect DigitalNet, Inc. $_=q;KvtuyboopuifeyQQfeemyibdlfee;; y.e.s. ;y+B-x+A-w+s; ;y;y; ;;print;; _______________________________________________ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
