I'd bet that this has nothing to do with the Rb IDE being written

4x speed loss in compile speed is pretty substantial no matter what
the cause. I'm not sure virtual function calls are worth that big a
price, if that's the actual cause.
Ah, compile speed. I thought Stefan was bitching about general
execution speed. I am hard-pressed to recall anything positive he
has ever said about REALbasic. I'd guess compile speed is slower
because the source code has to be assembled from the IDE or
something. I do wish that RS would take one of its rapid release
periods and devote it to optimization and bug fixes.
