Witch one is the fastest

What is the fastest

Do while x = 100
x=x+1
Loop

or

For x = 0 to 100
Next

Is it the same in ASP

Or is there a faster way??

Hiya

I think the second one is faster ( but don't quote me ). I would say so anyway as there is no equality involved and fewer lines means less assembler ( if I remeber correctly from college) so it should run quicker. But of course I could have just embarassed myself infront of Gennesis - in fact I can hear Phil Collins laughing right now!

Yeah me to i think for...next is faster, it's because
i'm my asp project, i'm using for...next to display my page
,but it repete 97 times, so it slow before you see the page
on the screen,that's why i wonder if do...loop was faster.

I tried response.flush, but it still wait until it's finish
before seeing it.

Here's my code, maybe somebody can give me hint on how to
make it faster:

Code:

Of all the different looping methods, I've always heard that do loops are the slowest of all, and for/next are the fastest.
