Hi to all who are interested in this topic.
We have had an interesting discussion, including some research, under the topic 'VFP versus C++'. This new topic is kind of a continuation, but it has a slightly different focus. Al Doman postulates the hypothesis that the newer functions are faster than the older functions. See also his post:

Several thoughts come to my mind:
- Is 32-bit versus 16-bit indeed a factor?
- Functions are unique, that is, no two functions do exactly the same thing. So, how can they be
compared with respect to speed?
- What is the hierarchy of the functions with regard to speed?
- Can we say that the newest functions compete well with the C++ equivalents?
Groet,
