If i do the following, hylist: (# element : object; ... Repetition #) (* List defined by Repetition *) STRING_LIST: hylist (# element:< text #); Tuple: (# cont_list: STRING_LIST; .... #); then i need less time then when i program this, hylist: (# element : object; ... Repetition #) (* List defined by Repetition *) STRING_LIST: hylist (# element:< text #); Tuple : STRING_LIST (# .... #); I don't know why BETA is slower in the second case. Any suggestions CP knaut@ls6.informatik.uni-dortmund.de
