Hi Fred,
these routines are written in C++ and therefore they can of course 
also be used in C++ (ie. a compiler). An interpreter is by design 
slower; but also the cleverness of the methods/algorithms one 
uses decides about the performance of an application. So if done
efficiently, then it will be fast. The alternative would be doing it in
a compiled language like C/C++ or Assembler :-) But that's much
harder than realizing it in an interpreter.
The faster your machine is the faster will be the code, so since
machines get much faster every quarter or so the performance 
problem disappeares "naturally" if one can afford the 
newest/fastest computing power.
BTW, I think it was Chuck who wrote that the ABtool had saved 
him about 12 hours processing time.
It is advisable that before starting a big project better one should 
do some speed benchmarks etc.
UM
