Yeah, and no wonder, most probably benchmarked against plain textfile I/O with its default 128 byte buffer. One can actually spice FPC/Delphi text I/O up quite nicely with settextbuf to 8k (the last time I tested, in P4 3 GHz times, higher values didn't really matter anymore) The compiler however already has its own 64k buffering system. _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
