Turbo C is fast (sorry, no hard statistics); I've seen comparison
against Mark Williams, Lattice, Laser and Aztec. Turbo C beats them all,
although MWC has much better debug facilities.

Turbo C is rather cheap, in the Netherlands around Dfl. 250,-, which is
about $120

Two user interfaces: one for commandline Shell freak, the other window
GEM oriented (like Turbo C for MS-DOS).

Supports prototyping (it's use strongly recommended), is full ANSI standard.

Fast execution, uses registers for passing parameters to a function rather
than the stack. Functions that have a variable number of arguments are
an exeception to this, of course...
