Much of Allegro's low level functions are inline assembly, but are they
the fastest available?  For example, the do_line() function is extremely
fast, assuming that the pixel-plotter is fast.  But is the
polygon-drawer or any of the other stuff fast enough for commercial use? 


Thanx for reading this.
