My test was a real world test based on something I do every time I use
archives. If the LhA exe is faster, then I'll keep using it, even though
I'm a registered XAD user.

I can't see how much quicker XAD would be from a shell anyway? I ran it as
an AmigaDOS command in the first place- it was slower, believe me.
xadUnFile with no output versus LhA with no output.

All the best,
