It depends on how you use it. As far as I have seen, the drawing routines
are the fastest (notice Allegro is FREEWARE) relatively to others and the
only thing which could slow down the process is the 3D routines, which
actually are not very fast. If you could change these 3d routines, a lot of
guys out there would stop complaining about Allegro's speed.
