Someone with  elitist "insight" can understand  the philosophy
of costly updates? :

Example (win2000, 850 MHz):

i)     Timing[ FourierTransform[Exp[-(x + 1)^2] , x, X];]

ii)     Timing[ Integrate[Exp[-(x + 1)^2 + I *x *X],
        {x, -\[Infinity],\[Infinity]}];]

iii)     Timing[ LaplaceTransform[Exp[-(x + 1)^2], x, X];]

results respectively:
         MMA 4.2,                  MMA 5.0            MMA5.1

i)         1.4                    Infinity          117.       seconds
ii)        1.0                    45.                     1.9
iii)       0.15                    1.0                   1.0

WRI,  quo vadis?
