BSD is just too slow. SCO has had a long time to optimize their code and have done a pretty good job of it. On the other hand, Altos has a version of SCO which is supposed to be 200 times faster than regular SCO. That's got to be 1000 times faster than BSD. SCO is soon to release a 64 bit version. . . it should scream! -Rusty
