Anyone one have a 30+mb text file?

Then you can add 5 seconds for the original 100 character entry. Total time: 29 seconds.

You're right, it looks like I really over-estimated the time required.

char x[98];

strcpy(x, "0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ!@#$%^&amp;&amp;*()_-+={}[]|\';:<>,.?/~`\"\n\t\\ \0");

This'll make it faster:

Without tab or newline, but its good enough:

Nope ... one call to strcpy it trivial relative to 30000 times through that loop. It is prettier though.

Alright, I'll bite since no one else will- WHY?

Step One: Random 30Mb text file.
Step Two: ???
Step Three: Profit!

why not grab that huge text file of PI?

AFAIK const somtimes allows the compiler to generate faster code because it knows the variable can't be modified.

Yea, that's a good point. I did try it though, and it made no difference in the run tiime for this simple case.
