How much slower? I've returned a few units from a couple of my
machines since the change and they don't seem any faster. Maybe I'll
have to wait for a larger representitive sample to see the
difference?

V3.08 worked out at about 15% slower overall than v3.03 for me but
that was a while back, so maybe they re-compiled it..? Hmmmn, the
v3.08 .exe is dated March 28th 2003 on the alien ftp server, so I
don't think it's been re-compiled. I wouldn't worry about it, you'll
see it's much faster in the longer term for sure - that's why most
'dedicated crunchers' are still using it. ;-)

Thanks Nick, your advice and experience are always welcome.
