You have to know the facts before you can distort them.

i don't have to remind you how many different versions of MSVCRT there are   :P
i am a little surprised you compare them

Thanxalot to everybody :icon14:

Won't be easy to reconcile all CPUs.
Background to this exercise: A real life application where I tried to search a 250MB text file (Thunderbird inbox...) for pattern A near pattern B, where "near" means +- 500 bytes. If pattern A is frequent, and pattern B is only present towards the end of the file, the exercise gets incredibly slow.

So I wrote a new version of Instr_() that takes a search limit, in this case: 2*500 bytes as an additional parameter. And voilĂ , searching the inbox is a factor 20 or so faster. But the additional parameter slows down the simple search a little bit, and this thread is aimed to investigate that problem.

As a side effect, it will be possible to search non-text files (i.e. with embedded zeros), if the len is known.
