This gains you a little speed in Revolution, not sure about SuperCard:

if offset(stLine,theText)>0 then put stLine & cr after MatchList

instead of using "is in"

I'm conducting an informal speed test comparing identical projects in SuperCard (4.1.2), Revolution (2.2), and RealBasic (5.5.1). The projects match 3,000 short phrases against an 81,920 word text. There has already been some feedback and these simple projects are now running even faster. Each one is only a dozen lines of code.

Here are the current statistics:

RealBasic -- 234 ticks
Revolution -- 1120 ticks
SuperCard -- 1889 ticks

I've set up a page for downloading the sample projects, if you'd like to try to tweak them to run faster. The object is not the fewest lines of code, it is to create the fastest code (without xfcns or xcmds, etc.). You can inspect the latest version of the code there as well, and see the latest speed results (in ticks).

Thanks in advance for your assistance.
