I'm doing some tests with XHarbour, and I've realized it is very slow in console output.
a sample program like

for a=1 to 10000
? a
next

needs many seconds to terminate, while in Clipper 5.2e runs like a flash!

I use GTWIN.lib, perhaps it's not the fastest...
any help, friends?
thank you.

As far as I know, Clipper uses a buffering technique for the console output.

Riccardo,

Win16 bits console is faster than Win32 console

Maybe its the used GT... lib that could be improved.

You can try gtwvt.lib.
