How to get the most speed out your program?

[SMcNeill]

Compile the final executable with optimizations enabled. That alone should give a 2x - 4x (probably more) performance uplift.

Custom compilation was a method in QuickBASIC, too. For instance if you didn't send anything to the printer, omit the printer subroutine. I still remember the most common optimization switches I used: OSEX. Gee, I wonder how that one got committed to memory? 

Anyway, could you share an example or Wiki link as to how to accomplish this in QB64?

Looks like you need to know some C++

The only real thing you need to know is how to click that first check box and then compile.
