I first wanted to mention I've really been enjoying the feedback from this
list!

I'm wondering if there is any information about WinCSound performance
compared to other OS's, particularly the Power Mac version.  I run CSound
on a Power Mac at school with 32MB RAM and it appears to be much faster
than my Win98-based, PII-266, 128MB RAM, all SCSI system at home.  We have
version 3.92 at school and I'm running 3.93 at home.  The orc+sco I'm using
has 8 instruments, one of which uses a 500K sample loaded in an ftable, and
the work is about 5:00 long.  Compiling at home is nearly twice longer than
it is at school.  I'm wondering if others have seen similar results (kind
of difficult considering we all have different computers), and if there are
any performance tips and tweaks.

Thanks again,
Christian Guirreri
