<snip> Wilhelm Sanke <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>compared cards with 100, 200, 250, and 775 controls each on two different computers, a Windows 98 PC with 350 MHz and 128 MB RAM and a Mac G4 Powerbook with 500 MHz, 516 MB RAM running in "Classic" mode under Mac OS 10.1. <snip>
Sadly I have no wisdom to contribute to the central issue of this thread, but I was fascinated by these figures. There are too many variables for me to judge whether the platform/environments are even approximately equivalent. (And that is not a criticism of Wilhelm, I don't for a second expect that he should have tried harder in this respect). I also recall ages ago some discussion on the MC list about platform performance comparison, but can't recall the essence of it. So, to my questions. Are we talking here about performance within the development environment only?.....hence the differences between mc & rev? Are there any performance differences between platforms worth noting both within the IDE and 'delivered' standalones?
