The 24bit environment under A/UX, compiling using THINK C, is slower
than on an SE/30 - _definately_ slower than on a "plain" IIfx.
(FYI: this was while compiling the TCL, lots of tiny files including
lots of headers, though the headers stay the same all the time)

8MB, and from what I see (and hear :-) there+s no paging nor (gosh)
swapping.

Oh, and this is using Berkley file systems on two quantum 80 megs -
fast search, not-so-fast transfer. But anyway, I don't think memory
is the problem here.

Maybe splitting the project file in two files would speed things up.
How slow is the "apple single" format ?
