I assume your test expression is supposed to be 6!:2'%.?50 50$1000' . Must have gotten garbled somewhere.
Just to add another timing - on a Pocket PC - 0.439 seconds for the above expression. That's like holding a 1970s mainframe in your hand! About a PC performing as well as a mainframe - the mainframes always have and still blow PCs (microcomputers) away. It's just that the PC is not many years behind the fastest mainframes. But mainframes and PCs are changing. PCs are dual-core and quad-core. The single CPU mainframe is being replaced by racks of microcomputers working together. Perhaps it's time for J to look into taking advantage of multiple processors available on PCs less than $1000. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
