>>Never tried to compare them this way. IMHO, the main reasoning between these two methods of form instantiation is not the instantiation speed, but rather in the advantages you get with one or another. So, the choice should not depend on instantiation speed, but rather on more important factors like inheritance from certain form class, or having the Dataenvironment available in the form. You just do what you need to do.

Well, it is easy to perform the speed test anyways. Just create a form and a form class with a couple of thousand controls and run the tests on a clean environment (restarting VFP). And tell us what you find. :)
