Re: Faster way of making long string?

I think if you did the conversion using Format() (in SysUtils.pas) in
batches of 100 or more in an array you'd find it even quicker. You
could make the format string once and re-use it (%d,%d,%d,%d,%d, etc
etc to 100 or more) AFAICS it allocates a long string as a buffer and
puts the converted chars into that.
