Because I like the Lightspeed C environment so well, I decided to
purchase Lightspeed Pascal. While the two environments are
similar, I wish they would have done more things the same way. But
what *really* bothers me is the seemingly slow performance of LSP
in comparison with TML (v1.11). I ported some existing trivial appli-
cations like the sieve "benchmark", a towers of hanoi program, and
an eight queens program. The sieve program runs fairly well but
the queens program takes significantly longer to find all (92)
solutions than does TML (TML=11 seconds (with printing) vs LSP 2.5-3
*minutes* (without printing)). The source code in both cases is
identical. The LSP compile options (D, N, V, & R) are turned off.
Why is LSP so slow?
