above is a topic to nasm code about extracting exporting functions
from a dll. I have the latest include file AFAIK. The code is working
OK for small DLLs, such imagehlp.dll but if bigger, application is
freezing.

Is nasm so slow or still there are some bugs? I also uploaded my
sources for whom wishes.

Your source is compiling fine for me with NASM 0.99.05. Also I don't see
any noticeable speed difference with NASM 0.98.39, but I didn't time it
though.

I think he doesn't speak about the speed of NASM but about the speed
of code generated by NASM. And for sure the code optimizer of NASM
can't compete with the one of a C compiler. But to generate code
which is infinite slow (freeze) shouldn't even happen with an assembler
which uses the crazy Intel syntax.
