   I am attempting to do some FORTRAN programming on my PC.  My compiler is
   pretty fast.  It is made by Lahey.  The problem comes when I try to 
   link the object code with my large library of object code utilities.
   The link process takes over five minutes !  I am using Microsoft LINK
   version 2.5. Is there a much faster LINK ?

   Also, the version of LIB that I have is v.1.0 from Microsoft.  This program
   has the nasty attribute of taking 100 times as long to add the 100-th
   module as it does to add the first to the library.  This seems silly in
   the Space Age.  Is there a decent librarian around ?
