That's not where your code spends its time. Run gprof(1). The majority of time your code spends is spent doing the 2 integer divides per text to integer conversion and in strtoimax (called by fscanf). Multiplying or dividing is the worst thing you can do on a CPU in general. -- Ted Faber http://www.isi.edu/~faber PGP: http://www.isi.edu/~faber/pubkeys.asc Unexpected attachment on this mail?
