- To get an overview about the performance of Magic Menu, I made some
- benchmarks. A special function of MM opens and closes the selected
- menu 200 times and measures the time with the internal Amiga clock,
- which is accurate up to 1/100 second.
-
- To make it more readable, the values are given relatively: The
- unoptimized 68000er version with USELAYER=YES took 177.98 seconds
- on my A2000 with an 68000er. All other values are fractions of this
- time. The higher the faster.
-
- The test was made on a 8 color workbench with a resolution of
- 640x480 pixels (Omnibus: 640x480)

- As you can see, the optimized version doesn't have a remarkable
- effect on the speed.
-
- For this reason, I wont include a special 68030 version into the
- archive in the future.
-
- Instead I suggest everybody to set the tool type "USELAYER" to NO,
- which makes Magic Menu up to 25% faster.
