Hmm, any output involved?  Are you using a mingw vs cygwin compiled
library? Or both mingw? both cygwin?

But anyway, that is a huge speed-up (~ factor 3).  Can anybody confirm
that M$ VC / Win98 are really that bad?

Ah, so it's mostly a VC issue in your case..

Li> It seems VC and windows 98 are not suitable for numeric computing.

Well, I coud have told you that before:)These ratios are incredible,
though!  I don't do any development with M$ tools, but I would still
be interested whether these numbers are "typical".
