All,

I have not used the SUN Visual Workshop for C++ or a C++ compiler lately.  I
have a development group asking me what switches and options to use to optimize
performance.  I hope you can help.

Secondly, the same development group has written the following code reading a
text file that has 128 characters per record (numerical data) as attached.  The
puzzling thing is that it runs in 0.19s when the system calls and screen output
are commented out, and it runs in 1min 12s with system calls and screen output
in.  I am not as familiar with the code since I have not written any for quite
some time.  Again, I hope you can help.

Thanks in advance,

Marc
