OK, I finally sat down and timed Megamax compiling a large program.
System: 1040STf (1 meg, internal floppy drive unused), 576K RAMdisk
(_everything_ done there), Megamax v1.1, micro-C-Shell.
Program: 22K (1000 lines, _not_ heavily commented) C source plus some
#include files, 3 external precompiled (.o) modules.  Final (executable)
program size 45K.  Program mostly does FP calcs.
Timings (in seconds):

	  6	Enter microEMACS, read source, write source
	 20	compile
	 35	link
	---
	 61	total

Compare with about 220 for MWC compiling a smaller program, as posted.
Megamax v2.0 (promised "soon") will supposedly have a faster linker.

Disclaimer: I have no affiliation with Megamax except as a customer.
There are many infuriating bugs in the Megamax C Language system, v1.1
(some of which I posted) - as there are in all the other systems...
The current Megamax FP lib is _terried bya
