Well, on my asthmatic PowerBook G4 1GHz 17' laptop (1 Mb RAM), i get 4 sec in debug and 3 sec in built app (RB 6r2) I've heard that Rosetta is close to this speed, so it seems unlikely that your numbers are correct.

Of course my wheezy laptop outperforming a dual G5 is probably a dead give away too...

PS: the code in the project is in the listbox's open event, taken from another poster on the list:
-------------------------
  dim ind as integer
  dim ris as double

  ris = Microseconds
  for ind = 1 to 100000
    ListBox1.addrow format(microseconds, "0000000000")
  next

StaticText1.Text = format ( ( ( Microseconds - ris ) / 1000000 ) , "##########" )
