WRONG SmegmaMan!!!  Running a 16-bit app on a 32-bit OS CAN be slower than
running the same 16-bit app on a 16-bit OS.  32-bit rewrites ARE ALMOST
ALWAYS FASTER, SIGNIFICANTLY FASTER, for a number of VERY significant
reasons.  You are either lying here or you don't know WTF you're talking
about.  I suspect the latter.  Stick to trading ideas.

But, of interest to the readership here, the point is that the move from 16
to 32 bits is commonly a process that *reduces* speed.  Omega apps are no
different than many others in this regard.  Someone was running around here
a while ago indicating that the move from 16 to 32 bits should be expected
to increase speed...  That is not commonly the case.
