  10. Did you try 1.99q11 in 1 bit color mode?  Color can slow things down.
  11. Also, floating point isn't going to be any faster (although I wouldn't
  12. think it would be slower, either), so if this is floating-point
  13. intensive your results won't be indicative of general integer
  14. performance.
  15.  
  16. If you run Speedometer you'll see that Executor 1.99q11 is *much*
  17. faster than 1.1.
