To get an overview about the performance of Magic Menu, I made some
benchmarks. A special function of MM opens and closes the selected 
menu 200 times and measures the time with the internal Amiga clock,
which is accurate up to 1/100 second.

To make it more readable, the values are given relatively: The
unoptimized 68000er version with USELAYER=YES took 177.98 seconds
on my A2000 with an 68000er. All other values are fractions of this
time. The higher the faster.

The test was made on a 8 color workbench with a resolution of
640x480 pixels (Omnibus: 640x480)

As you can see, the optimized version doesn't have a remarkable
effect on the speed.

For this reason, I wont include a special 68030 version into the
archive in the future.

Instead I suggest everybody to set the tool type "USELAYER" to NO,
which makes Magic Menu up to 25% faster.
