Subj : scrolling slower in 32 bits mode than in 16.

Hello:
I wrote a program and I was compiling it in 16 bits mode using bcc (borland
v5.02)
I tried  to compile with bcc32 (as there is less problem for data space)
It worked but the scrolling was very much slower than with bcc.

To isolate the problem, I wrote a very simple program to test the scrolling:

#include "stdio.h"
void main()
{
int i;
for(i=32;i<1024;i++) printf("%i ",i);
}


I compiled it with bcc: bcc -4 -ff -N -ml test.cpp

and with bcc32: bcc32 -6 -fp -N -d test.cpp

with my computer PIII-550 Mhz, the difference of speed of scrollling is very
noticeable.

My question is: is there a way to have scrolling under 32bits as fast as
under 16 bits

(I tried also to use cout instead of printf, the result is the same)

thanks
