Well, it's about time to reach for the wallet and decide whether to
upgrade to Lahey LF90 v. 4, or to jump ship and get the DEC
Powerstation. Last I heard, the DEC compiler ran circles around Lahey
for speed in running NEC, with as much as 2 or 3 times speed
improvement being reported.....

-----------------------------

Is it true that if you want to compile using the Lahey LF90 compiler
that the source code must be in FORTRAN 90 not FORTRAN 77? I have
been informed that the present NEC codes are in FORTRAN 77 and that
they will have to be converted to FORTRAN 90.
