  26. Did you try 1.99q11 in 1 bit color mode?  Color can slow things down.
  27. Also, floating point isn't going to be any faster (although I wouldn't
  28. think it would be slower, either), so if this is floating-point
  29. intensive your results won't be indicative of general integer
  30. performance.
  31.  
  32. If you run Speedometer you'll see that Executor 1.99q11 is *much*
  33. faster than 1.1.
