Xy was about 1/4 second or less. Word took about 2 or 3 seconds.
So even in today's world, Xy remains faster. To be fair, however, does
anyone ever need more speed than what Word has? Are we splitting hairs

Depends on what you need to do; speed matters a lot for me. When you run
a search, search and replace, or cull across more than 200 files/80 MB
on a regular basis the seconds add up.
