  15. Can anyone tell me why my code apparently runs faster when I sample
  16. it (using WATCOM's WSAMPRSI)?
  17.  
  18. I have my program spit out the elapsed time at the end of its 
  19. execution.
  20. When i run main.exe on a particular mechanism, it takes about 10 
  21. seconds.  However, when I run it through the sampler (wsamprsi 
  22. main), it takes about 7.5 seconds.
  23.  
  24. I don't know why this would happen...anyone?
  25.  
  26. Thanks in advance,
