[comp.lang.pascal] Is TP 6.0's writestring slower than good old writeln?

Well I broke down and got TP 6.0 and am contemplating converting
some of my programs to the TurboVideo "look and feel".  I haven't
had time to do anything except look at the books so far but I'm
wondering if there is any tremendous speed overhead involved in
writing strings to the screen inside of a TV window as opposed to
good old writeln.   Has anyone out there tried bench marking some
of the TV features compared to more standard display techniques?
