Hi Dimanod, In article <880eac$4np at smc.vnet.net>, "DIAMOND Mark" <noname at noname.com> wrote: For the speed-up of MathLink, I have a few comments for that, (1) For Linux, use Pipe instead of TCP, it is more than 10 times faster. (2) For Mac, there is a magical bug of MathLink with MacOS. MacOS 8.5 or later are slow on MathLink about 5 times than before. (3) For Windows, FileMap is faster than TCP.(I don't measure how much...) Linux Pipe took less than 1 sec for 600000 integer list transfer on my 140MHz PC. Mac with OS7.6 took 2 sec for 600000 integer list transfer.(G3)
