If you write your own simple threaded code Forth, it's a lot slower than C, especially if you use another slow interpretative language to start with (yes, people do that). If you use an analytical compiler like VFX or iForth, it's about as fast. If you use something in between like gforth- fast, you lose a factor 2, for some codes that benefit particularly from an analytic compiler even more. That's for doing the same thing. Since C programmer rarely do the same thing as Forth programmers (especially keeping it stupid simple), the real world is different. -- Bernd Paysan "If you want it done right, you have to do it yourself" net2o ID: kQusJzA;7*?t=uy@X}1GWr!+0qqp_Cn176t4(dQ* http://bernd-paysan.de/
