Hi All,
I forwarded Lindgren's comments to David Gedye [Gedye@starwave.com] (SETI
project) because I was also interested in an answer to the slow Java
question. Here is his answer:

Does this make anyone happier? From my limited knowledge of programming
I'd suspect the math could be further optimized using 'gulp' assembler. I
never had the patience for low level programming. This is all still in
early stages from the looks of it and that makes it even more interesting.
I'm keeping the rc5 running but when SETI launches, I'm there dude.
Sincerely, Mike McClelland
