If some is doing serious Fortran-77 work with number crunching I would
strongly recommend the Greenhill's Fortran compiler.  One of our
professors was interested in the speed of the MacII for his huge
number crunching program.  The MacII using the Greenhill's compiler
was as just about as fast as his Sun 3/260 with FPA using Sun f77.
Note: the Mac was on a prototype MacII (2x the number of memory
wait states, running a beta version of A/UX).  We all know that the
Sun should have creamed the MacII.  This either says something about
f77 or about Greenhill Fortran (or maybe both).

Cheers,
