1) How fast is the "new" operator as compared to "malloc"?

2) I get a lot of " virtual memory exceeded in 'new' " errors since I
 installed CWSDPMI 4. Could anybody tell me, in general, what this is? It
 seems to be an ambiguous can't-find-file error (or at least I thought
so).
 I ran it with an old program I wrote (almost identical to new one) and
 when
 it couldn't find a file, gave this error - when I had it open an existing
 file, it worked... The point is, the files I'm trying to open in prog 2
 exist -- has anybody else had this error? Know what possible errors this
 error is?

Please respond to kwe1 AT flash DOT net . -Josh Eckstein
