Firebird 0.7 vs. Mozilla 1.4

[Christian Stocker]

Just tried to improve the speed for BXE a little bit (tweaking here and
there) and did a very simple benchmark on Firebird 0.7 vs. Mozilla 1.4
on Mac OS X 10.2 (G4/1GHz). Firebird does not only feel snappier, it
really is faster. I only tested, how long it takes to generate the
"real" XML document out of the editor, there is no UI-drawing involved
in that, just traversing nodes and transforming them.
These are avg. figures over some runs:

Firebird: ~180ms
Mozilla: ~230ms

Judge for yourself ;)

Next tests: Check on Windows and Linux.
