   Hi,   
      
      Well, I am sure others are following you.  Even   
   if we don't normally comment.  Optimization is   
   a nice topic.  One that I have tried every so often.   
   With generally poor results and a few successes.   
      
      One attempt that comes to mind, was a graphics   
   program that was too slow on a slow computer.   
   After a fairly large effort, I doubled its speed on   
   that system.  On a faster computer, where it was   
   too fast anyway, I got a thirty-fold+ increase in   
   speed.   
      
      Most of my attempts at making programs smaller   
   are not well rewarded.   
      
   Regards,   
      
   Steve N.
