Allegro is as fast as it can be at that and darn near everything else it
does. If something's "too slow" for what you have in mind, it's the
compiler or the computer. For the fastest compiled code, use the latest
pgcc from (IIRC) http://www.goof.com to compile your program (don't forget
to link it with a liballeg.a compiled with pgcc too!) and if it's still not
fast enough? *shrug* better start saving to upgrade to something like a
PII-333. :-)
