SAS/C optimalizations is not as bad, as they maybe look =)

I have a 604/233 and its not impresive into ANY way.
At least not with 68k OS, so dont tell me, what PPC can or should do.
A bit OT there.

Wow. So, the main question then is, why V compilations is not done under
GCC? How many time can take rebuilding the source code tree into GCC?

Yenah, this sounds very good, but - why this is not yet done?

Uhm, probably yea. But i have to ask again =8-)
