Hey Folks,
Of course I'm interested in this thread. Always a big concern. Earlier
this year, and last year, I was doing face-off competitions between
LiveCode versions to test how optimization is faring.
When I get time, after some other priorities and addon updates, I would
like to do another round of cross-version testing to see who is the
current champion. (IIRC, I think 6.7 was last time, for Windows.)
Meanwhile....

1. Try LC 6.5 desktop vs LC 9 desktop: how does that fare? And maybe LC
9 desktop vs LC 9 server? I would like to distinguish LC 6/9 from LC
desktop/server. Apples to apples testing, then conclusions are possible.
2. Sample code stack would be great.

Optimizing our code is a good thing, and something I am paranoid about
and specialize in helping people with. Optimizing LC's own code is also
a good thing, and really the bigger question here perhaps for this thread!
So...I'll be quietly following this thread. No time to participate yet,
but will later.
Best wishes,
