the only other option IIRC was Lattice C, and that was painfully slow as well. there's only so much 7.16 mhz can do.

- squarefoot 5y agoI seem to recall that Dice-C was faster than Lattice/SAS. If C compatibility wasn't required, then Amiga-E was possibly the best option if one wanted a (very) fast compiler paired with a high lever powerful language. https://strlen.com/amiga-e/ https://strlen.com/amiga-e/
- butlerm 5y agoAztec C was a commercially available, and very popular, C compiler available for the Amiga at the time. And for any reasonable size program, it was fast enough. I worked on one unusually large program for the comparable Atari ST that took about half an hour to build. Most "normal" programs compiled a lot faster.
