    Hi,
    
    My customer is wandering why it takes 3 CPU hours to rebuild and 2 CPU
    hours to update the MCC parse tables, even in DECmcc 1.3. Can somebody
    give me some explanations ?
    
    Thanks.
    
    Michel

  The reason has to do with the time it takes to find and delete items out
  of the parse tables.  If I could, I'd eliminate the parse tables 
  completely today!  Actually, we're starting to use some new technology
  from the Common Agent project to make the DECmcc dictionary smaller and
  faster.  Stay tuned for these capabilites in future versions.
  BTW, you can try looking for notes with the DICTIONARY keyword for more info
  on this topic.
                                                                      - Jerry
