Jonathan - Does the nasm assembler support in Xfractint 20.2.04 really make that much of a speed improvement, or is it something else?

Xfractint is running 32-bit code compiled with an optimizing C compiler. Fractint is running 16-bit code compiled with an old MS C compiler. The assembly code is not being used for the same reason it isn't running in Fractint with this PAR (outside=tdis). Jonathan
