Code:

Start:  Fri 11/04/2011     10:16:29.34     

End:    Fri 11/04/2011     10:19:19.39 

2 min 50 secs = the runtime for a batch script to add HTML tags (
) to each line in a 362k text file. The output = 407k HTML file. The batch script has 1 FOR loop.

A VBS script did the same task in just 2 seconds.
